Without faith no one can please God. Whoever comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who sincerely try to find him. Hebrews 11:6It is hard not to turn to other people for advice and to look at ourselves through their eyes.
This world is all about judging. There are other's who judge, television that judges, teachers, leaders, children, everyone judges. And just as much as we are judge, we are guilty of judging other as well.
Sometimes we think that the perception people have of us is true and we believe it. I find myself allowing others' opinions of me get in my head and bother me. Hubby is always telling me, "who care's what they think". (I hate it when he's right!). God actually takes offense when we listen to other people's opinions and begin to believe them.
God has already told us that He made us in His image. He already promised that He is working on us constantly and that we are His own. Let's not fall into the idolatry trap of taking other's options of us and putting them above God's.
He has the ultimate say in who we are...He has the best opinion about our lives!
But the time is coming when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. In fact, that time is now here. And these are the kind of people the Father wants to be his worshipers. God is spirit. So the people who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. John 4:23-24
