"But Samuel said, 'What is this you have done?' Saul replied, 'I saw my men scattering from me, and you didn't arrive when you said you would, and the Philistines are at Micmash ready for battle.'" 1 Samuel 13:11 (NLT)

When Saul sees his men leaving he becomes nervous, he feels he must do something quick to please them or they will all leave. Saul knows he is not supposed to offer the sacrifice, but in Samuel's delay he decides to do it anyways. Saul is desperate to please his men, for fear that they may leave him, and in this desperation and fear, he forgets about pleasing God.

John Wesley said, "Above all sing spiritually. Have an eye to God in every word you sing. Aim at pleasing him more than yourself, or any other creature. In order to do this attend strictly to the sense of what you sing, and see that your heart is not carried away with the sound, but offered to God continually; so shall your singing be such as the Lord will approve here, and reward you when he cometh in the clouds of heaven." Let your life sing praises to God! Let your actions seek to please Him and no other! You cannot please God and man at the same time, so seek to please your Heavenly Father! Walk in obedience to His Word, fully trusting Him, and know He will never forsake you! People will disappoint us, they will leave us and forsake us at times, but our Lord will never do such a thing! He is ever faithful! Let our love and desire be to Him alone!

"Jesus replied, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.'" Matthew 22:37 (NLT)
