Live To Please Jesus




I've come to a point in my life now that pleasing everyone is not really my destiny.

It's pleasing Jesus.

You see, when you try to think about how to please your friends, family or loved ones, you'd only get confused by what they want. They want to see you based on what they need to see in you. That is so stressful !

Instead, today, believe that pleasing Jesus is your goal.

How to please Jesus?

Just rest in Him ....

Yah.that simple. Rest in His love and unmerited favour that He keeps pouring on you.

He loves that.

He loves it when you totally depend on Him about everything.

Try it.

And let me know how it sets you free.

Good morning everyone!

It's Monday morning here in Singapore.

My Bus just left me so it gave me an opportunity to blog this away.

Amazing, right?

Hahah!

Enjoy today's devotional from Sarah Young's "Jesus Calling For Kids"


Live to Please Me

Be careful! When you do good things, don’t do them in front of people to be seen by them. If you do that, then you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
—Matthew 6:1 (ICB)

When your greatest desire is to please Me, then you will be truly free. How? Living to please Me frees you from the phony expectations of this world. Too many of My children do their good deeds to impress their friends, their family, even their church. But if looking good in front of others is your main goal, then you are really only pleasing yourself.

Instead, live to please Me. When what you care about the most is pleasing Me, you won’t care what other people think. When you believe that I always love you, you can rise above peer pressure. And when you trust that I am always with you, you will have the courage to stand up for what is right.

Live to please Me—and this will make you free.


Love,
Jesus
