What does God think?!

All too often I think we worry more about man's approval than God's. What do others think? What does the world think? For that matter, what does the church think? 

But there's only one thing that really matters, and that is what does God think!

"The Savior does not ask how much favor you have with the world, how much praise you are receiving from human lips; but He does ask you to live so that He can put His seal upon you. Satan is seeking to cast his shadow across your pathway, that he may hinder the success of your work. You must have within you a power from above, that in the name of Jesus of Nazareth you may resist the power which is working from beneath. To have in the heart the Spirit of Christ is of infinitely more consequence than the possession of wordily recognition." Counsels to Teachers, p. 235

So as we continue through this week, let's not ask, "What do others think…but what matters most to Christ!" It is Him that we live for. It is He we choose to honor.
