It’s Not About Me

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love.Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction,faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.Romans 12:9-13 NIV Bible gateway

It can be easy to become self centered and to think everything is all about you in sort of a narcissistic way without being a true narcissist. Get in a habit of thinking more of others needs than you do your own. 

Stop wallowing in self pity and really truly reach out to another person and help with their needs for a change. This world is structured almost on being self centered especially when it comes to social media and all the selfie culture. 

Start your day with prayer. Jesus first, others second and yourself last what I call the JOY principle. You may think you are the only person with problems. If you are reading this in America your problems are not at all like in the rest of the world. Get up, give thanks, be still and go help another person. 

PRAYER: Lord God give me ears to hear and eyes to see the hurt around me. Keep me from selfishness. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
