Yes! Many of us, consciously or unconsciously, derive joy or happiness mainly from our personal achievements. While it is good to derive happiness in one’s accomplishments, it does not guarantee long lasting happiness or joy if they don’t glorify God.
The achievements could be in education , business or financial breakthrough, social connections and others.
Jeremiah 9:23-24
Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches.
But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.
When we prioritize glorifying God in our achievements, we experience a deeper sense of purpose and lasting joy.
