a passage every preacher should memorize

"just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts." (1 Thessalonians 2:4)

I feel like this passage should be memorized and kept visible by every preacher and teacher of God's Word.

Just reflect on those truths for a few minutes:

1. we have been entrusted with the gospel -how humbling is it that God chose to entrust you with such a monumental task? how sobering is it that you have to give an account for how you handled it?
2. we speak not to please man - how does "pleasing man" creep up in your heart during sermon prep or after your sermon?
3. we speak to please God - what pleases God in a sermon? what pleases God in a preacher? after you preach, are you more preoccupied with what God thinks or what your audience thinks?
4. God tests our hearts - people will critique your sermon, but are you aware that God is critiquing your motives?
