If I were trying to please men, I would not
be a servant of Christ.
Galatians1:10
Seeking the approval of others often takes
center stage in our thoughts and controls the way we act, and
the decisions we make. We have a distorted idea that we need to
please everyone. Well we can’t. There will always be someone
who disapproves of our actions, or dislikes us. It is God who
needs to be center stage, when it comes to approval. Deep within
each of us, there is a longing to be approved of by our Creator.
Man’s approval cannot substitute or fulfill that desire in us
and we can’t alter the truth of Jesus Christ to gain it. It is
His seal of approval that satisfies our souls.
Prayer
My heart seeks to please you. Your approval
is what I desire. I accept the truth of the gospel of Jesus
Christ Your Son, without compromise. Give me the strength to
live my life, so that it reflects Your power, Glory and love to
others. It is Your approval my souls seeks. Give me the wisdom
and strength to serve You with my whole heart. In Jesus name,
Amen.
