More Of Him, Less Of Me

“He must become greater; I must become less.”John 3:30

This is indeed a self centered culture we live in at least in the Western world. Selfies, Facebook, blowing our own horn. You have to be intentional to stay humble and get rid of things in your life weighing you down. 

Think about dressing for instance. Do you dress for yourself as it feels comfortable or to draw attention to yourself? This is in all areas of life. Really think on that. Is it time maybe to purposely donate a new pretty outfit to Goodwill? And when you do don’t let everyone know how good a person you are. Dress for Christ instead. (See Ephesians 4:22-32). 

Time to truly allow God to mold you into his image which also includes unconditional love, kindness, giving, humility to name a few character traits. Go in peace today. Smile. Maybe send a card or note to someone or make a long overdue phone call. Above all to be more like Him spend time with Him. 

PRAYER: This is a day you created Lord not for me to pursue the pleasures of this world but to set my sites on Heaven and how to make sure I can steer people to know Jesus. Help me stay away from self and turn to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
