“Whether a man arrives or does not arrive at his own destiny,” writes Elizabeth O’Connor, depends on whether or not he finds the Kingdom within and hears the call to wholeness. The man who hears that call is chosen. He does not have to scramble for a place in the scheme of things. He knows that there is a place which is his and that he can live close to the One who will show it to him.”

“If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”

— Galatians 1:10 (NIV)

Jesus, deliver us from our inordinate need to please people. Help us seek only to please You. Amen.
