People Pleasing - Who says?

Feeling confident in making decisions can be difficult at times, but it gets even more complicated when we try to figure in all of the "shoulds/shouldn'ts" that society places out there. 

When do you not feel confident making decisions? What brings you confidence?

One of the most freeing things we can do is to focus on our actions being aligned with God's desires over anything else...even our own perceptions. 

It's not just about what we think "sounds right," but what is right and aligned with the true, actual Word of God. 

What "sounds right" may be different than what aligns with God's Word.

When that is the focus, things become so much clearer. As long as it isn't against His Word, we have a lot of freedom to govern our lives and can feel confident challenging the critical, stifling, and opinionated viewpoints of society and making our own wise decisions of how we will live our lives. 

It's wisdom to do life with God and an exercise in frustration to try to do life trying to be a people pleaser.
