Fresh Mannaby Pastor Tim BurtThe Most Important Thing
Amber Nelon Kistler auditioned for American Idol when Jennifer Lopez was a judge. The panel was impressed, especially J-Lo. After the audition, Jennifer Lopez took Amber aside and said, “Listen, I know you mentioned singing Gospel music, but I have to ask—would you consider being more revealing?”Because of Amber's deep love for God and the guidance of His Word, she quickly responded, “No, I wouldn’t feel comfortable with that.”Lopez, wanting to encourage her to be accepted for the show, said, “Do you understand what I’m asking? If you show more, I can make you a superstar.”Amber replied, “Thank you, but I am a child of God, and I wouldn’t want to disappoint Him.”Lopez retorted, “Well then, leave.”As Amber started to walk away, Lopez called her back. She questioned Amber again, “Do you realize what you’re doing? I can put your name in lights, make you famous, and incredibly wealthy.”Amber calmly replied, “I am already known by the One who matters most. I’m already famous in His eyes, and that’s all that matters.”Lopez instructed her to leave again. Amber graciously thanked them as she walked out. Yet, Lopez called her back once more. She asked Amber, “I want you to succeed. You have what it takes. Will you be more revealing?”Amber stood her ground and replied, “No, I cannot compromise my values and let the Lord down.”Lopez abruptly responded, “Get out of my sight.”Amber is now in the presence of Jesus, the one she loved, sang about, and faithfully served.Luke 6:22-23 (NIV)"Blessed are you when men hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their fathers treated the prophets."In His love,Pastor Tim Burt
