Christian Devotional – November 16, 2010

VERSE:
Johns 12:43–for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.

TRUTH:
Those who believed in Jesus did not share it because they were afraid of what might happen to them. The Bible lists this as their reason. Do we use the same reasoning for the things we do or don’t do? Are we actively seeking the approval of God or just settling for the approval of men?

RESPONSE:
Lord, help me to be actively seeking Your approval regardless of how other people respond.
