Acceptance

It feels good to be accepted. Who can deny that? I am sure that everyone wants acceptance to some degree. To know that they're ok. But acceptance should never be a goal in life. Especially when we are looking for it from other people. Only God defines us, and only His opinion should matter. But we can easily get caught up in our selfishness and think that we need to please others in order to feel good about ourselves and get the positive attention we think we deserve. Oh how quickly we forget that all the glory belongs to the Lord.

I got an acceptance letter yesterday for the nursing program I've been waiting to get into :) and I praise God for the opportunity that I have been given to further His kingdom as I will seek to share the good news with my classmates-to-be.

It feels good to be accepted, but the feeling that comes from a growing relationship with God is undeniably better.
