Great reminder in my time alone with God this morning. John 12:43 says there were certain leaders/people who didn’t follow Jesus publicly “for they loved praise from men more than praise from God.”
Leaders – whose praise do you desire?
For those of us who have the extreme privilege of sharing the Word this weekend – whether in music or word – whether with children, students or adults —- whose praise do you desire?
Just a thought, but it’s definitely a statement that grabbed my attention and heart this morning.
