D A I L Y G O S P E L
We cannot please everyone. This does not have to make us depressed. The key to coping with such people is to ask ourselves whether or not we are doing our best in following God in that situation. If we are, then we should walk away knowing that there is nothing more we can do and the rest is up to God. The key is obedience to God’s will — that is all He asks of us; the rest is up to Him.
Matthew 11:16-19
16 Jesus said to the crowds: “To what shall I compare this generation? It is like children who sit in marketplaces and call to one another, 17 ‘We played the flute for you, but you did not dance, we sang a dirge but you did not mourn.’ 18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they said, ‘He is possessed by a demon.’ 19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking and they said, ‘Look, he is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is vindicated by her works.”
