"The ultimate goal in life for the Christian is to glorify God -
not to pursue happiness or find fulfillment
or be loved and appreciated by others.
Those things are important and have their place,
but they're not to take precedence over pleasing Him in everything we do."
-Charles Swindoll

Currently reading this and finding wonderful nuggets of wisdom.
I highly recommend it!

Thanks for posting that! My husband and I are currently doing something we really feel God has told us to do and we have zero backing from our families. We keep reminding each other that we hare doing what God wants, and trying not to let people get us down.
