Episode 49 The Snare of Approval Addiction
from Marvin Nemitz Podcast · host Marvin Nemitz
All of us want to be liked. All of us want people to agree with our way of seeing things. There is a quote that is powerful... Many times, in order to be right with God means that we win the disapproval of people. Are you willing to stand with God if that means people will walk away from you? Approval addiction is just like any other addiction. We can become a slave to the opinions of people. This is such a horrible place to be in life because many people are inconsistent in what they say they believe. This addiction is unsustainable because no two people consistently say and believe the same thing on any number of subjects. Who are you going to agree with? The only approval we need is the opinion of God Himself. In this podcast we are going to cover this and so much more. When you know that God is pleased with you there is no need to go running for another "hit" that feeds the ego.
