Women have a difficult time trying not to please. Listen to these wide words from Mary’s song “Take Me as I Am”:

“She don’t need No one telling her What to do and say. No one telling her Who to be. She’s on solid ground. She’s been lost and found Now, she answers to G-O-D”

And here is another line from her song “Just Fine”:

“No stress through the night, at a time in my life Ain’t worried about if you feel it. Got my head on straight, I got my mind right I ain’t gonna let you kill it You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine.”

When we focus on pleasing others we miss out on so much in life. Many of us give up our dreams and some even stop hoping. We are on shaky ground when we walk out our lives pleasing the masses. Why do we try to please the masses? Because we are seeking acceptance, we are seeking love, we are seeking to be liked, we are seeking to be seen or heard. So many reasons but still we are seeking.

You can’t seek first the Kingdom of man. The Word clearly states in Matthew 6:33 that you must seek first the Kingdom of God and then, only then, will all other things be added unto you.

There is no one who can tell you what to do other than G-O-D! He is your authority on all things and He has the final word.

I don’t care if it is you man, your child, your momma or your boss, if you live to please man and not God, your foundation is just not right. You miss what God says when He says that He is the Alpha and the Omega: The beginning and The end (Revelations 1:8).

My sister you only need to play to an audience of one. In the end you only answer to Him. Even those you live to please the masses will be on their knees.
