Pleasing God
Do we have a propensity to talk more about accepting God rather than God accepting us? Has the Church spoken so much about whether or not God pleases us, that we have forgotten about whether or not we please Him?

"Yes" is my answer to those questions. Too many times, we as Christians, think more of ourselves and less of God, when it should be reversed. We tend to get so busy worrying about pleasing others and ourselves, and we forget to please God first, above and before anything or anybody else. It's not about us. It's all about Him. We need to be more concerned with how we look to God than how we look in the mirror.

I think you were making reference to what God does for us instead of what we do for God. Correct? If that's the case, then, yes, we need to remember that we're here for God's glory and not ours.
We often forget that we were saved for a purpose--something that He prepared in advance for us to do.
