You need to take a chance to discover your uniqueness.

Jesus replied, "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself. The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments." Matthew 22:37-40 (NLT)

Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirt. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Matthew 28:19-20 (NLT)
