Self Conscious?

 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.Galatians 2:20

To be self conscious is to worry too much about what others think or to place ones self on a pedestal of sorts being almost in love with self. 

Scripture tells you to die to self(1 Corinthians 15:31). It is hard today with the selfie culture, snap chat, and other ways to elevate yourself. Even sometimes worrying too much about what others think could place you in danger of even narcissism.

What we should do is lift Jesus higher and seek to emulate him and represent Him and not be thinking of ourselves so much. Romans 12:3 Says For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. Now go lift Jesus higher! 

PRAYER: This is the day you have made Lord and you alone are great and mighty and can do all things. Forgive me if I ever elevated myself too much without giving you the glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
