The Christian's comfort: I am not my own. I do not make my own rules or create my own identity. There is one who made me and can save me.
Kevin DeYoungI try to keep in my mind the simple question: Am I trying to do good or make myself look good? Too many of our responsibilities get added to our plate when we are trying to please people, impress people, prove ourselves, acquire power, increase our prestige. All those motivations are about looking good more than doing good.
