For many years I felt (actually, I was made to feel) like I didn’t have the goods because I didn’t jump and shout. I actually felt like being a Pentecostal meant that I had to be outwardly exuberant and I always felt like a misfit because I didn’t react to a service like the jumpers and shouters did. I can see now that it was an unnecessary obstacle to growing in Christ that some more exuberant people placed in my path and now I accept who I am. Jumpers and shouters do not have to be like me and I do not have to be like them. There’s room in the kingdom for all of us.
