Today's #BattleDrill: Have you ever noticed you can’t please everyone all the time? You can’t always make everyone happy. #salvationarmy #basingstoke #devotional
If you find yourself living for other people’s approval, then being unable to please everyone all the time leads to stress.
Jesus knew this. He didn’t live for other people’s approval. The only approval he sought was his Father’s. Doing what God wanted was what motivated Jesus in both his life and ministry.
Some people approved of what Jesus was doing, but many rejected him. He didn’t allow this to blow him off course. He simply did what his Father want him to do.

Think about the following:
oHow has seeking someone’s approval led to stress in your life?
