Under Gods Command

Proverbs 27:21 – The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but man is tested by the praise he receives.

Praise tests a person, just as high temperatures test metal. How does praise affect you? Do you work to get it? Do you work harder after you’ve gotten it? Your attitude toward praise tells a lot about your character. People of high integrity are not swayed by praise. They are attuned to their inner convictions, and they do what they should whether or not they are praised for it.
