Do we look for affirmation from man, compliments and validation from bosses when we do our jobs well? In this face-paced society we're living in, we often hear the need to "affirm people for what they have done". While there is nothing wrong in seeking affirmation, little do we realize that our hearts have started to yearn for man's validation more than what God thinks of us as we are faithful to the things, big or small, assigned to us. In doing and prayers, the Pharisees committed one deadly mistake - they did it before many audiences, and they seek validation from these audiences. But the doing and prayer that please God is this - you do and you pray because you have only ONE audience, ie God. Because He is the only audience, you do because you care about Him more than anyone else; you pray because you just want to continuously seek the inputs and voices from this audience.
