Word of God clearly says in Ecclesiastes
2:26 - For to the one who pleases him God gives wisdom and
knowledge and joy; but to the sinner he gives the work of gathering and
heaping, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a chasing
after wind.
We after being in the fellowship with the world have become
people pleaser instead of becoming God pleaser. By pleasing people we may reap momentary
reward but when we become God pleaser we will reap eternal reward.
To please people all we need is flattery, lies and exalting
them, by doing all this we may win their favour for a while but after that they
may come against us.
To please God all we need is faith and we cannot get faith by
attending Holy mass in the church or attending novenas or attending retreats or
attending prayer group but by practicing everything we listen in Holy mass,
retreat, novena and prayer group.
When we put into practice Word of God we listen our faith
will be tested by God through various situations and when we overcome the
situation through the Word of God then we will grow little in faith, Once we
grow in faith little then slowly desire to grow in faith will increase.
When we increase in faith God will bless with His divine
wisdom, knowledge and joy.
When we chose to live in sin then we will be busy in the
world toiling and gathering everything to give it to those who please God. We
all have goals in life and the truth is most of us have big goals to fulfil our
desires in this world but very few of us have desire of heaven as our final goal.
By having big goals in the world which is temporary will not
automatically earn us a place in heaven. We have to have firstly desire to be
with God eternally in heaven, only by having desire it will not work but we
have to work towards it through faith.
Let us be God pleaser so that we may enjoy with Him eternally
instead of becoming people pleaser and have momentary happiness.
