Whom Are You Trying To Please?

Written by Wes Schaeffer | October 3, 2022

From today’s reading...

Whom am I trying to convince now, human beings or God? Am I trying to please human beings? If I were still doing that I should not be a servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10

We’ve been lied to.

We’ve been lied to by politicians who tax you to death and take away your rights every chance they get.

We’ve been lied to by corporations, who call you “family” and “part of the team,” only to cut your legs out from under you if they can save a buck. We’ve been lied to by teachers who are pushing their own ideologies instead of helping you not only learn but learn how to learn and how to fall in love with learning.

We’ve been lied to by athletes and other celebrities who sold their souls to be rich and famous.

So who, exactly, are you trying to impress?

If you think about it, you’ll realize you’ve fallen victim to modern groupthink.

Today, choose to break away from it and realize that the only person you need to impress is your Creator, and striving to impress Him is the only way to...

Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.

Now go sell something.
