read this from junwei's blog, i like this post... Galatians1:10 "Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." Say no to being an approval addict. yes, whatever i do, God, i wanna please you.. i wanna place my relationship with you above all the others.. i wanna say what you want me to say, even if it hurts.. after i had said what i should say, i feel relieved, but at the same time, i dunno what will happen to that r/s.. God, i trust those things into your hands.. i will not compromise (i try) the truth because i am afraid that it will test some friendships.. i will not.. the truth is the truth, nothing can change it..
