when you're at the mall and you discover some awesome shoes, what happens when you show them to your friends? there will be some those who think the shoes are the best they've seen, there will be some who are jealous, they will discourage you to buy it in hopes of buying the same pair for themselves later. there will be some that will laugh so hard they'll fall down and many other reactions will come along the way, come one people, don't pretend that this hasn't happened, we live in a real world and this is how the world is now. you will find it hard to please every one and make everyone happy.
trying to please everyone can be a frustrating and painful experience, just about when you think that you've pleased one person, another one comes along. this will cause your attention to be diverted, you will find yourself stopping to please one and start pleasing the second. if this goes on and you keep riding this cycle, you'll end up crashing very very soon.
the Bible says to love God with all your heart-to focus your attention on HIM. focusing on God means trying to please HIM in your attitudes and actions and everything else. and the cool thing is, when you focus on God, your relationship with others will get better. so, remember this, stop pleasing other people, please God first and others next, then you will see the power of God moving in your life. have a great day all of you !!!
