WHEN HEAVEN IS YOUR AUDIENCE, YOU LIVE DIFFERENTLY. #repost @jesus_christus_follower Be who you are, not who the world wants you to be. #godsapproval Your worth is not determined by what other people think of you. Your worth comes from what the Lord says about you. #jesusapproval People will always have opinions about you. But you live for God because He’s the only one who has intimate knowledge of you. #livingforapproval Don’t live for the applause of the crowd. Live for the approval of God. #godsapprovalisallineed I don’t care what you think of me, I only care what God thinks of me. #godsapprovalisallyouneed Never seek approval from people after God already approved you. #approvalofothers We are not living for the approval of people. We are living for the approval of God. #approvalofman You don’t need their permission when you already have God’s approval. #seekingapprovalfromothers If you chase approval, you’ll die from rejection. Find your worth in Christ. #findyourworthinchrist There is not one drop of your self worth that depends on what other people think or say. #pleasegod God, show me who You’ve created me to be, because I want to be who You say I am. #peoplesapproval Don’t let anyone ever steal your joy. Everyone will not see you, appreciate you, understand you or even like you. #liveforgodalone Becoming obsessed with what people think about you is the fastest way to forget what God thinks about you. #liveforgod #chasingapproval You can’t please everyone-but you can please God. #liveforgodonly You gotta know how dope you are without a validation, congratulation or a celebration. #applausefromthecrowd If my life is fruitless, it doesn’t matter who praises me, and if my life is fruitful, it doesn’t matter who criticized me. #whatgodthinks Decisions become easier when your will to please God outweighs your will to please the world. #whatgodthinksofyou THE OPINION THAT SOMEONE MAY HAVE ABOUT YOU DOES NOT CHANGE GOD’S PURPOSE ON YOUR LIFE. #whatgodthinksofme Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.- Gal.1:10 (at Mount Juliet, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzDxZX5laR8/?igshid=v7425hydnmx

SOME PEOPLE AREN’T REALLY ALL THEY POST TO BE. #repost @_93life Make sure you’re happy in real life not just for social media. #fakepeople #fakelife Don’t compare your life and happiness with others based upon their social media highlight reel. #postingwhoyouposttobe #postingwhoyouarenot DON’T BUY THINGS YOU DON’T NEED, WITH MONEY YOU DON’T HAVE, TO IMPRESS PEOPLE YOU DON’T EVEN LIKE. #impressingothers #livingforapproval God is waiting for us to stop trying to impress others in the church (and outside the church) and be more concerned with pleasing Him. #tryingtoimpress #tryingtoimpressothers In the end, people will judge you anyway, so don’t live your life impressing others-live your life impressing yourself. #fakingsocialmedia #fakemedia Don’t give them the privilege of knowing everything about you. Just because it’s not posted on social media doesn’t mean it’s not happening. Quietly progress. #notbeingyourself #fakesocialmedia #illusionsofsocialmedia #fakephotos #fakepages Social media has created jealous behavior over illusions. Sadly some are envious of things, relationships and lifestyles that don’t even exists. Don’t be jealous with anyone. Don’t compete with anyone. Just focus on becoming the best version of yourself. #fakepagesbelike #comparingyourlifetoothers ”But just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts.”- 1Thess.2:4 #comparingyourlife #comparison Social media is training us to compare our lives, instead of appreciating everything we are. No wonder why everyone is always depressed. #image #beyourself If you don’t want people knowing or talking about your business, stop posting everything about your life on the internet. #approvalseeking #stopseekingapproval Don’t compare your real life to someone else’s controlled online content. #seekingotherpeoplesapproval #seekingapproval They put a lot of effort to look happy on Instagram just so others will assume that they are happy in that relationship. But filters and angels don’t really hide crappy relationships like you think they do. #socialmediaillusions #badthingsaboutsocialmedia (at Mount Juliet, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwbuRGqFhvG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8hegdum5ibbs

PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS HAVE AN OPINION ABOUT YOU, BUT YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE FOR THE LORD, NOT PEOPLE. #repost @craiggroeschel @life.church @mekala333 Y’all be seeking validation from folks that ain’t even valid. #livingforapproval #peoplesopinion QUIT WORRYING ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK AND JUST BE WHO GOD MADE YOU TO BE. IF YOU WILL RUN YOUR RACE, GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF YOUR CRITICS. #fightingforpeopletolikeyou #tryingtogetpeopletolikeyou Don’t worry about other people’s opinions of you. God never told you to impress people; only to love them. #impressingothers #validation What God knows about me is more important than what others think about me. #seekingvalidation #peoplepleasing If outside validation is your only source of nourishment you will hunger for the rest of your life. #whatgodthinks #whatgodthinksofyou If you truly love who you are, your worth will not be based on anyone’s validation or approval. #whatpeoplethink #howpeoplefeel “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”- Gal.1:10 #peoplesopinionofyou #stoppeoplepleasing When I stopped trying to be somebody else to please everybody else I became free to be myself. It’s not your job to like me-it’s mine. #tryingtoimpress #livingtoimpress The need for external validation is often born from self-doubt. #livingtoimpressothers WE LIVE IN A WORLD FULL OF PEOPLE WHO ARE SATISFIED WITH PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE THEY ARE NOT. #peoplepleaser If you persistently seek validation from others, you will inadvertently invalidate your own self-worth. #peoplepleasers #peoplepleasing SEEKING VALIDATION IS THE SAME AS SAYING, “TELL ME WHAT I’M WORTH!” TELL YOURSELF. #pleasingpeople #stoppleasingpeople Stop trying to impress people by being someone you’re not because in the end, you’ll lose yourself. #stoppleasingpeoplewhodontcare #godsopinion Don’t live to impress people that really couldn’t care less about you. That’s wasting your life! #godsopinionmatters #fightingforapproval “It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you, but if you trust the Lord, you are safe.”- Prov.29:25 (at Mount Juliet, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwZx7QCl61p/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1asoc956nhf65
