Too Much Praise

@ 08:03 AM (13 months, 20 days ago)

Too much honey is bad for you, and so is trying to win too much praise. ~ Proverbs 25:27 (TEV).

Too much praise is just as much as a problem as too much criticism.  When we are praised too much, it goes to our head and we become to full of ourselves.  Then we can't see our faults for all our good qualities.  Instead of trying to win the approval and compliments of others, we need to choose to believe only what God says about us.  God's opinion and God's compliments are the only ones that count.

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?  Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin?  That He was raised from the dead?  Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins.  Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour."  If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again.  Let us know if you prayed this prayer.
