YOU CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE!
Back in the 1960’s=
There was a song by
Ricky Nelson=called “Garden Party”
In that song=there was
A line that went
“You CAN’T please everyone-
So you might as well=
PLEASE YOURSELF”
That is so TRUE=I wonder
IF Jesus ever felt that way
I know that I do
“And all spoke HIGHLY
Of him=and were AMAZED
At the gracious words
That came from his mouth=
They also asked
‘Isn’t this the son of Joseph?’”
Luke 4:22
Jesus must have gotten tired
OF PLEASING everyone-
Speaking to everyone-HEALING EVERYONE
The people had a
MIXED REACTION to Jesus
Some were amazed-some were appalled
YOU CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE!
The truth is all
We have to DO
Is please=GOD THE FATHER!
By loving with OUR WHOLE HEART-
Soul and mind=and loving others
That is what PLEASES GOD
YOU CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE!
“When a man’s ways=PLEASE GOD
He makes it so=even his enemies
Will be at peace with him” Proverbs
16:7
“Not with eyeservice=AS MENPLEASERS
But as servants=of Christ=
Doing the will of God
From the heart”
Ephesians 6:6
You CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE!=
All you can do
Is please
God the Holy Father
And let things=come what may
We will=NEVER PLEASE EVERYONE
In our FAITH life either
All we can do
Is BE TRUE
To God and Jesus
So PLEASE the Lord
And DO what is right
In God the=HOLY FATHER’S EYES
“Make you perfect
In every good work
To do his will
Working in you
That which is WELLPLEASING
In his sight=through Jesus Christ
To whom be glory
Forever and ever Amen” Hebrews
13:21
Dear Lord=we PRAY
That we KNOW=we
CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE
And make us eager
To PLEASE YOU=at all times
In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER PLEASING=God
the Holy Father!
