“We make it our aim to please him.” 2Cor.5 ESV
How can we be free to please God if we are entangled in the web of wanting, human approval. It is a despairing prison when we try to live up to the expectations of people. Some sad souls never get over demanding parents or a domineering spouse, a workaholic boss even a controlling preacher. We must learn to serve people yes, but as God directs and looking only for His approval. He would set us free to serve joyfully, possessing a humble power that looks to the best interest of those in our life as a willing servant but never a slave imprisoned to their selfish demands. 4/25/2011 Conversations Within ts (On the road from Between GA to Brevard, NC)
