Approve by man or God - your choice

1 Thessalonians 2:4,6
"We speak as men approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please men but God, who tests our hearts. We were not looking for praises from men, not from you or anyone else."

Do we do what we do so that we can gain approval from our fellow man or so that we can gain God's approval? An interesting question.

A lot of the time we seek approvals for what we do so that we feel acceptance and part of a community. We want to belong. But at the end of the day, we need to see which approval is really more important. Or does the approval really matter ?

What happens after I die?

View and decide for your self. To believe in Jesus Christ who died and raised from the dead or ...

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you - 1 Peter 5:7

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. - 1 Peter 5:7

Guess this is common courtesy... if someone cares for you, should you not return the care ?

Food for thought. In today's world it seems that this is lacking in many people.
Can you afford to not return the care for God for all the blessings that he has given you?
Only you can answer that question.

Beware of worldly distractions

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength" (Mark 12:30). God wants ALL of our love! He has no desire to share our love with any of the little "gods" of this world; "For the Lord your God is a jealous God" (Deuteronomy 4:24).

Sometimes we tend to get distracted by all the worldly things and wonder why we don't hear God.
We need to constantly remind ourselves where our focus should be.

Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in me. -John 14:1 (NKJV)

Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in me. - John 14:1 (NKJV) Let not anything trouble you as worry cannot resolve anything Believe in God and all things can be resolved For all the worries in the world Are in our Father's hands

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful - Colossians 4:2

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful - Colossians 4:2

We need to remember that the only way we can talk to God is through prayer.
We also need to remember that prayer is not just to request for things and favors,
but also to give thanks for what we have received and the people in our lives.
We receive what we need when we need it
The timing may not be of our choosing and we may not realize until later on.
What ever it is we need to give thanks.
