Scripture of the Day - May 15, 2012

Colossians 3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men...

 
Who do you want to please? What is your focus? Are you more concerned with what men think or with what God thinks? You will frustrate yourself to no end trying to please people, you can't please everyone, someone is bound to be unhappy with what you do. Not only that...the rewards of man-pleasers will burn up one day, but the rewards of God-pleasers are for eternity.
The ironic thing is, that in pleasing God, you will inevitably please man. We just have to get our priorities in order.

I read this somewhere...
If you wish to be disappointed look to others.
If you wish to be disheartened look at yourself.
If you wish to be encouraged look to JESUS!
