Who are you trying to please?

Today I was confronted with a tough issue.  John 12: 42-43 says that there were religious people that did not follow Jesus because they were afraid that the Pharisees would not be happy.  As I read this it hit me that many times throughout my day I will try to please people instead of pleasing God.  I mean I know what God wants me to do, but so many times I choose to do what I think other people want me to do.  So I choose to please people over God.

I am a work in progress, but I am trying my best to change this about myself.  Besides, when all is said and done Jesus will be the only one left standing.  I need to please Him and not worry so much about what others think.  How about you…who are you trying to please?
