When you try to please everyone, you'll wear yourself out. You're too busy being who they want you to be and doing what they want you to do. What about you? What do you want? Somewhere along the way, you lose sight of what God wants. Therefore, you are worn out and unhappy, trying to please man. Why? Because we want to be accepted and we fear rejection. If you don't stand up for yourself, people will continue to control you. That's what I said, CONTROL YOU. You are allowing it. Really don't think God is pleased with your passivity. Start by saying no to people and see how they respond. Those that get angry do not respect you or your ability to make a decision for yourself. They are losing their hold over you and may possibly get nasty with you. These people do not have your best interest at heart. They want what is best for them, not you.
Check yourself before you wreck yourself. Time to take inventory of those around you. Who really wants whats best for you? There is a difference between showing concern for you and wanting whats best for them. Time to stop pleasing everyone else and start pleasing God. Tell you what I know....SEEK HIM. ONLY HE KNOWS WHAT YOU NEED IN YOUR LIFE.
