I Corinthians 4:2, 4 I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me.
My main desire is not so much to secure the esteem of my peers, but of God. People’s opinions--their likes & dislikes fade. They change with time. But God’s opinion stands sure forever.
In my estimation---in regard to myself—it is a matter of small concern for a fellow human-being to voice judgment. My real responsibility is to my Master only. God. The One (and only) who has the supreme power over the end of my life. I am answerable really only to God. If He be please with my life, which is what I'm striving to reach, well then,….’nuff said.
When comes the great “getting up morning”—the Rapture of the Church---I want to hear HIM say, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant”. Man's applause doesn’t even exist in comparison to this.
