Afraid of What People Think About Me
It’s easy to get caught up worrying about what people think of you. But God wants us to let go of opinions of others and shift our focus to Him instead. How is that possible? Let’s find out together.

Watching this video in bed in the middle of the night because I couldn't sleep. Totally touched as I am listening and praying at the same time. This is me, my whole life. "You have no idea what God might do through one single act of obedience". I know what I need to do. I wholly surrender to you Lord Jesus. Holy Spirit send fire now on me. 🙏 Holy Spirit help those who need boldness to be more bold, help those who need courage to be courageous, those who need faith to be faithful. To do what you have been called do. "Well done my good and faithful servant." I am a recovering people pleaser. I was.

I am a recovering people pleaser. God knew the perfect time to show me this video and I thank you lord for always showing up even when I may be blind to it. Serving you God means disappointing others which is perfectly fine because without serving you, there is no me. I cannot lose when I follow you 🙌🏼
I’m a recovering people pleaser. God, show me where I’m living for people, and empower me to live for you.
I'm so grateful for your leadership podcast. I have a new business it's only been around 12 months and I'm not qualified to be a business owner, I do not have a degree, nor did either of my parents succeed in their careers, I do not cone from money, and I do not have not friends that have their own businesses. Thus it's been a difficult decision to pursue this opportunity the Lord gave me, but with your leadership podcast it's truly been an absolute Godsent, guiding me through decisions, and thought patterns, teaching me how to be,a,better business owner, manager and decision maker with God as my ultimate Boss of the business. Thank you Pastor Craig I find it tremendously valuable.

Dear God we come to You to ask for guidance and ckarification on how we have to walk in life to only please You. In Jesus Name, Amen. Gabi Lancone
So agree! And when I stop people pleasing there are consequences….
I am a recovering people pleaser! Thank you pastor for sharing honestly! I needed you!
I am a people pleaser with the love language of words of affirmation. I need to hear where I matter.
Yes. I am surrendering my life for you!
This video really touches me deeply in my time of trouble I truly want to please only God and get over my feelings of anxiety and questioning what others think of me and live for Jesus because he laid down his life so my sins could be forgiven which is the ultimate gift that no one on this earth can provide. I have to be grateful and patient because it is with God’s timing that I will receive my blessings and I have to stay in prayer and the word for understanding and to hear God calling out to me and resist those temptations from the devil.
I AM currently a people pleaser. But, I am working on changing that!😊
Thank you for continuing to stand with me for my breakthrough. God surely is at work and I long to see what He is doing behind the scenes.

I feel into people pleasing by becoming a business owner/ drug recovery. You do what it takes, you do whats uncomfortable, you have to answer the call, you have to make your sponsor satisfied or your customer happy. I forgot how to separate the YES! from my personal life

I’m a revolving people pleaser ❤😢
I so enjoy Craig. He gets to the bones of everything!! You can’t please all the people all the time, but…..I can please my God!,,,, when I was young, pleasing and saying yes to “everything was so important to me. What I found was that people used me as a doormat because well “she’ll do it”! What I realized that as I got older was to learn the word “no” really existed and it’s ok to say NO, I do fall short everyday, but everyday I try harder to please and glorify my Father in Heaven!
I have wrestled with this and have thought that i have overcome this pleasing others issue, but I am realising that I do hold pieces of my faith and Jesus back. It even causes me trouble now on how to share Jesus with love all of the time, instead I try to win arguments and not just leave with humility or not stepping on someones soul-toes(being too nice) when they need to hear Jesus. But now I will live in obedience and in judgment of Christ and not the world. I hope others who struggle with this will make this change consciously so they can help Jesus change others!
