Rest & Reflect: Who Are You Trying to Please? - Colossians 3:23-24

Rest & Reflect: Who Are You Trying to Please? - Colossians 3:23-24

These verses from Colossians 3 remind us that whatever we do in this life is ultimately for the Lord. We tend to strive for praise and acknowledgement from other people, but this will always fall short. Even when no one else seems to notice our efforts, God sees. Let's rest & reflect on this passage and recalibrate our hearts to focus on the Lord and not the praise (or lack of praise) from other people.
