Happy Sunday!!! 25:08:13

Happy Sunday!! I think we need to stop and think about the reasons why we do what we do when we do them. It is not right to live our lives letting everyone else dictate to us on what to do to make them happy and not God or even ourselves. We need to realize that in other to be a God pleaser we cannot be a self-pleaser or a people pleaser. Everybody wants to have an opinion about what you should do…..I can’t just do what everybody wants me to do and please them because most times I’m not even pleasing God as a result. We need to live a life that is pleasing to God. Healthy people know they have faults and don’t feel like they have them, you don’t have to pretend to be perfect especially when speaking to sick people. Everybody has got stuff wrong with them but nobody wants anybody to know….I believe that we need to not only need to know who we are in Christ, we also need to know our weaknesses and admit them and know that we need eachother in life. We also need to be careful with our hearts and how much expectation we have.If you have got ur expectation in God, even when someone isn’t treating you right, you trust that God will take you out of it and not keep a grudge that could likely take you to hell. Sometimes we expect so much from people and when they let us down as humans we get heartbroken. Im not saying don’t trust anyone but give humans some slack and lay it down to God. When you trust God 100% you won’t have trust issues with humans. No one owes you anything, we are all bound to sin..struggling with the good and the bad….give all your trust to God and He will take care of you. I care most about what God thinks and not what humans think. No matter what you do if someone wants to think bad about you, they will. Cos if it’s not one thing, its another. Cos no matter how good you do there will always be one thing you lack. Why will God leave us with one thing we lack cos He wants us to need eachother. No man is an island and God made us all to help each other. We need to do goodworks with the right motive, we need to do what we do as unto the Lord desiring to please Him and we should not do anything to please people. We need to learn to hear from God for ourselves than always asking people all the time too. Cos not everyone has been gifted to hear from God and definitely not on your behalf.There are so many right things we do for the wrong reasons. For example some of us go to church every Sunday and its not for God. I want to do everything I do in honour of the Lord, eat,drink,go out, sleep, die…everything I do I want to do all I do in honour of the Lord and as my friend I want you to do same too. I belong to God and I’m suppose to live for Him and if what im doing is not to His glory then I rather not do it right? I cannot stress about how important it is to please God and not man….Alot of the times you wont be able to please people and God at the same time, its better for man to be displeased with you than God.Sometimes we do things cos we’re hoping to be well thought of. Even in prayer, some people pray out loud not for God but for people to hear and sometimes God will ask “ child are you talking to me or them” seriously we need to get our motive right and we will live a better life on earth. We need to fight the flesh more than we are fighting now,that is the essense of fasting….less of the flesh and more of the Spirit cos whether we like it or not our flesh is tough and more that 80% of the time we want to do what the flesh wants. It doesn’t make any sense the things we do sometimes just to keep people happy. So we have to think about why we do what we do. Have a blessed week ahead and remember to do all that you do for God.
