I Choose
Today, could you just try and imagine that everyone likes you, everyone approves of you. No matter what you do, everyone thinks you’re awesome.
Did you enjoy that? Because it will never happen, never ever happen. Completely impossible. No matter what you do, you cannot please everyone.

LIVING FOR THE APPROVAL OF PEOPLE KEEPS YOU FROM THE PURPOSES OF GOD.
By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. 25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. Hebrews 11:24-26
THE POWER OF PURPOSE
•PURPOSE DIMINISHES DISTRACTIONS.
•PURPOSE PUSHES YOU THROUGH THE PAIN.
•PURPOSE EMPOWERS YOU TO PLEASE GOD.
Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings! Acts 5:29
[Moses] regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. Hebrews 11:26
