I need you to answer this question. Do you want every single person in the world to love you? Like every man, woman , child even animals just see you and love you!
I'm sure everyone wants that but I am sorry to disappoint you but ITS IMPOSSIBLE! Like ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE!
We cannot please everyone but that doesn't matter but We can please God and that is where the true value is! We can never be blessed and fulfilled by being the most likable person on earth but We can be immensely blessed both on earth and in heaven by God!
The world tries to sell us that we need fame. We crave likes on our Instagram page, Facebook and all kinds of social media. We put up pictures and videos and wait for people to like. The more likes we get the more joyous we are! We seek approval from the world. We want the world to love us!. We keep wondering what people think about our hair, our car, our life, our kids!. Set yourself free!it really doesn't matter. Stop Wasting your Imagination!
The truth is, as Christians we shouldn't allow the world set our standards! We are created to be the light of the World and the salt of the earth!
How can we light up a world that we are practically begging to like us? It's not possible.
The more fixated we are on getting people to like us, the more deviated from our destinies we will be. We cannot be whatever God wants us to be because we are more focused on living for the approval of people instead of the approval of God.
Saul lost his kingship because he sought the approval of his people instead of the approval of God. The bible says in Hebrew 11:24
"By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. 25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt,not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible."
Stop Looking for people to like you! And focus on pleasing God!
