The man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence indeed is the LORD, is blessed.
(Jeremiah 17:7)
(Jeremiah 17:7)
“Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word, and my servant will be healed."
When Jesus heard this, He was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said,
“I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel!”
“I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel!”
Here's what Paul prayed for the Colossians while He was imprisoned at Rome towards the end of his ministry.
What pleases our Father and our Lord:
1. Being filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding.
2. Walking in a manner worthy of the Lord.
3. Bearing fruit in every good work.
4. Increasing in the knowledge of God.
5. Strengthened with all power according to His glorious might.
6. Attaining steadfastness and patience.
7. Joyously giving thanks to the Father.
He has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

For me, its loving Him with all my heart, soul, and mind. Submission is a beautiful process... For me, anyways!
I think God loves having an intimate relationship with us, so really, I feel like He loves who I am, not my actions. Which leads me to not worrying about pleasing Him but to just be myself and praising the work only He could do in my heart. Strip away all the unnecessary junk that clouded my heart and stand completely unhidden and naked in front of Him!
