Many people are driven by the need for
approval.
They allow the expectations of parents or
spouses or children or teachers or friends to control their lives. Many adults are
still trying to earn the approval of unpleasable parents. Others are driven by
peer pressure, always worried by what others might think. Unfortunately, those
who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.
I don’t know all the keys to success, but
one key to failure is to try to please everyone.
Being controlled by the opinions of others
is a guaranteed way to miss God’s purposes for your life.
Jesus said, “No one can serve two masters.”
Amen.
