I have a natural tendency to serve others that sometimes falls more on the trying to please man side. But I am so thankful my worth is in Christ alone and not what this world thinks of me.

As long as we are walking in the path He has laid out before us, we can't go wrong. He will bring us the friends we need to encourage and lift us up. <br /><br />Love and Hugs ~ KatHeart2Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05240536955573366802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817241909677069838.post-11481751094287721002010-05-24T12:38:55.024-04:002010-05-24T12:38:55.024-04:00We all want people to like us and we all want to p...We all want people to like us and we all want to please others. It is natural to enjoy the approval and acceptance of others except when it takes the place of the approval and acceptance of God. It is so hard sometimes to know when we cross that line and step over into finding our value in others. The first clue to know when that happens is frustration. :)christy rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576305610780918375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817241909677069838.post-21696390565124858202010-05-24T11:51:46.595-04:002010-05-24T11:51:46.595-04:00I can definitely be a people pleaser.

I am harming myself and I am also standing in the way of the person who was really suppose to serve.

When I fall back into old patterns, God brings this verse to mind:<br /><br />Galatians 1:10 "Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ."Jennifer @ JenniferDukesLee.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15934656581948719407noreply@blogger.com
