In today’s world, man is often more fearful of the judgment of others than of the judgment of God. Behind every action, there seems to be a veil of pretense, a constant struggle to fit into a mold created by society. From the simplest acts—eating and drinking, sitting and standing, waking and sleeping, laughing and crying—everything is often more influenced by what others think than by the desires of his own heart.
But in the midst of this performance, we must remember one truth: the world’s approval is fleeting, but the eyes of God see straight to the soul. It is not enough to appear good in the sight of others. Instead, we must strive to be true before God, for He knows our hearts intimately.
God is always present within us, guiding us, waiting for us to embrace authenticity over appearance. Let us choose to live in truth, not to please the world, but to honor the One who sees us as we truly are.
