Pleasing everybody?
Is it possible to please everybody? Many have tried but failed.No matter
what you do, its so hard to please everybody in this world. There are
those who will always do all it takes to make you look bad. They will
even go to an extend of creating and spreading rumors about you doing
this or that. Well, they may seem to succeed but? But what? God who
knows the end from the beginning will sure vindicate you.
The story of Daniel as found in the book of Daniel goes to show that. Daniel' enemies did everything possible to prevent him from ascending to the top most position in a foreign country.They even accused him of things that he did not do.Interestingly, the king was forced to cast Daniel into a den of lions. Did is enemies succeed? By no means. God not only took care of Daniel but also made it possible to ascend to the throne.
So, when you are being accused of this or that, just ignore that and instead continue doing the good that you have always done counting on the Lord God to sort you out.
That is what I have always done and sure enough God has always seen me through very difficulty situations. Here is what the Bible says:
" When a man's ways are pleasing to the LORD, he makes even his enemies live at peace with him."(Proverbs 16:7)
"So my advice is, leave these men alone. If they are teaching and doing these things merely on their own, it will soon be overthrown. But if it is of God, you will not be able to stop them. You may even find yourselves fighting against God"(Acts 5:38-39)
"It pleased Darius to appoint 120 satraps to rule throughout the kingdom, with three administrators over them, one of whom was Daniel. The satraps were made accountable to them so that the king might not suffer loss. Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom. At this, the administrators and the satraps tried to find grounds for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs, but they were unable to do so. They could find no corruption in him, because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent. Finally these men said, “We will never find any basis for charges against this man Daniel unless it has something to do with the law of his God.” (Daniel 6:1-5)
As you can tell, God is not man. He knows the end from the beginning.
