what did we question

thought of the day (?) {my life (?)}

whose opinion is it that i value and seek, my teachers and adults in my life, my peers, myself or my God?

answerless as of now. or not confronted for an answer.

thanks to a friend for the following idea in answer to my previous post:
Colossians 3:23-24
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

not something i didn't know before hand necessarily - but something i need constant reminder of. i honestly try to work at everything with all my heart, but i do not always remember that i am working for the Lord - hence the question. am i working for myself? to avoid my own self disappointment? am i working for my teacher's approval, praise and grading? am i working to be better than my peers?

I think honestly, that's the hardest part of being a Christian (sorry i'm responding so late cuz I just read it lol). but the fact that we're not suppose to live for ourselves at all and simply live for God. I mean when you think aobut it, it's impossible. But that's why we are sinners. That's something we strive for, our ultimate goal is to be able to completely do what we do solely for the purpose of praising the Lord.
