Do I try to do too much to please? Lord knows I already know the answer to that question. But why?Is it that I want approval? Love? Appreciation? Or just because I simply like to make others happy? I know in my heart that it is the latter. But I also know that I crave approval, and I also know that that is a weakness and a character flaw. It’s something Ive tried to work on over my trips around the sun, but i do not seem to be getting any better at it.
I should simply care about how HE sees me. HE loves me in spite of my flaws, ugliness and weaknesses. Instead of trying so hard to please others, I should focus only on pleasing HIM, which in turn, blesses those around me. It is so stinking simple…
