Sometimes hearing from God, while beautiful, can be painful. God strips us of junk and purifies through fire. This was a tougher lesson to learn:
My perfectionism does not derive from the desire to do things with excellence for God. Rather, it is my desire to receive recognition, praise, respect, and admiration from others. On the one hand it is a natural desire to be loved and appreciated. On the other hand it is the basis for pride where I want the glory that belongs to the Creator.
- People pleasing is not of God.
