Pleasing God and Others


Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

We all seek to please those we love. We desire to bring pleasure and happiness to those that are close to us. We don’t speak unkindly about people we desire to please. To truly please someone requires some action on the pleaser. Being a people pleaser to get what you want is surface pleasing and fake. Pleasing God should be the centrality of those who have come to Christ. Coming to Christ in faith is the first step to pleasing the Father. Believing that Jesus is the Son of God and that He came to earth to die for our sins pleases Him. He rewards them that seek His face and have faith to trust Him. Such is the life of a true believer in Christ.
