DAD'S RAMBLINGS – Pleasing God
Romans 8:5
"So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God."
Pleasing God is not a priority of those who are carnal. In fact, it does not register on the scale They live to please themselves. For the Believer, pleasing God should be the prime motivator. If I love someone, I will want to please him or he. Jesus said, "I always do those things that please Him [the Father]" (John 8:29). When my heart is set on pleasing God, He works in me to do what is pleasing in His sight (Hebrews 13:21). The person who lives according to the spirit pleases God. The person who lives according to the flesh does not please God. I want my life to please Him. Lord, let me please You today.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: Pleasing God is the goal of one living in the spirit.
