Sometimes the things that you do really aren't the least bit appreciated by others. But I must understand that it isn't for appreciation that I'm doing all these. First it is for God, second is for the person. All this because of God's initiative awesome love. Come to think of it, I'd rather they be drawn closer to God then appreciate me for my efforts. It's not appreciation that I seek but the will of God.

Dear God, that I may continually live my life for the audience of one -- You. :)

Psalm 4:4

"In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent."

Romans 6:23

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
