Gal 1:10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. 1 Thes 2:4 But just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts. Col 3:23-24 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord & not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. —As children we are always looking for our father’s approval! A good father always withholds approval until we get it right! Then just his smile can bring such joy to our hearts! A father’s influence is so important in our life, but our Father in heaven is of so much more important! Wouldn’t it be sweet to hear the words, “well done my good & faithful servant”! Well I am here to tell you He is smiling because we are wrapped in the arms of His son! So smile just knowing you are His! Love Mel
