A common problem for all of us - to varying degrees - is living to people please rather than to please Christ. We are all apt to do some things in our life to garner the affirmation of men over the praise of Christ. I Corinthians 4:1-5 speaks powerfully to this tendency.
We are simply called to live to please Christ and to forget about trying to please men. In the end, it is only Christ's judgment that will bear any significance.
People pleasing is a tiring goal - it is never satisfied. Give it up - and do what Christ would have you do in EVERY situation.
