For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.Gal 1:10
For consider your calling, brothers: mnot many of you were wise according to worldly standards,not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong;God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.
1 Co 1:26-30
God chose me not because of my ability and strength but because of my inability and weakness.
So who am I trying to please? What do I have to take pride in?
