The bible says, “Am I now trying to win the approval of
human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still
trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”
How many people today are not being true to who God created
them to be simply because they’re afraid they’re going to disappoint somebody?
They’re afraid they may fall out of someone else’s good grace. They worry about
not being accepted into a certain group.
You can’t live your life trying to be who your parents want
you to be or who your co-workers want you to be or who your friends want you to
be. More important than any of that is staying true to who God has anointed you
to be. Don’t allow any person, even your own thoughts to stand in the way of
you becoming and having all that God created you to be and have.
Today, make the decision to live life to please God
even if that doesn’t please some people. If you stay open and obedient to Him
you can rest assured that He will protect your way. Surrender yourself
wholeheartedly to who God created you to be. Let Him mold and shape your
character. Let Him order your steps. When you submit your life to Him, He will
shine down on you and you’ll live the fulfilled, abundant life He has prepared
for you!
