ABOVE ALL ELSE #5
Hey Friend-
Seeing the number of likes and comments on a post, hearing a way-to-go after leading the event, getting a how-in-the-world-do-you-do-it question from a peer…
It feels good to receive the APPROVAL of OTHERS, doesn’t it?
Most of us appreciate outside affirmation of what we do in both life + biz …but when we wrongly place the source of our approval in the hands of men, we push our Creator, the only one whose approval of us matters in the end, off the throne of our hearts.
Whether you seek approval because you need the affirmation as someone who is always questioning your value, or because you like hearing how amazing the work you do is in the eyes of others…
Seeking the approval of man over the approval of God is not the mark of someone who knows whose she is…and besides, people are not always honest, dependable or intentional, so if you’re depending on them to fill your tank, you will be left feeling empty.
But God’s approval is always genuine, loving and personal.
And when it’s all said and done, when we no longer have anything we’ve done propping us up, don’t you want to hear, “Well done good and faithful servant”?
Let’s dethrone PEOPLE-PLEASING & APPROVAL SEEKING of others to find your value in what He says about you…
And seek to please an audience of 1 together.
I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!
