Who is your Audience?

Applause, we all love it. Some of us crave it. We look to others for aapproval, encouragement and praise. And we feel bad when we disappoint. In John ch12v37-50, Jesus discusses unbelief of the people. Several Pharisees believed Jesus, but were afraid of being expelled from the synagoge. Peer pressure you might say. V43 states it plainly, "For they loved human praise more than the praise of God". Human praise might be audible and timely, but which matters? The Holy Spirit living inside us will lift us when we do God's will and convict us when we don't. So who is our audience. Do we pretend there are areas that God doesn't see? Do we act one way around certain people and another with others? We are on stage for others to see. And God Himself is our audience!
