Living for God’s Approval.
"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." — Galatians 1:10
Life can easily become a search for acceptance, recognition, and approval from others. You may find yourself adjusting who you are, carrying burdens that are not yours, or seeking validation from people who may never fully understand your journey.
But your greatest purpose is not to impress people — it is to please God. People’s opinions change, applause fades, and human approval is temporary, but God’s love and acceptance remain constant.
When you place God at the centre of your life, you find freedom to walk in truth, humility, and obedience. You no longer have to prove your worth because your identity is already secured in Him. Let your choices, words, and actions today be guided by one question: “Lord, is this pleasing to You?”
Prayer
