Meredith Burton Galatians 1:10
Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Paul was preaching to the Galatians that the things you do should be for God and not for your fellow men. If you have the approval of God you simply do not need the approval of society. The question you ask yourself should be, "Does this please God?" not "Does this please my peers?"
If you are a real servant of God you praise him for the love that He gives, not for the approval of men.
Prayer: Dear Lord, let us praise you, without needing other mortal opinions. Help us to see that you love us when others may not. Amen.
