A
reminder for today
Don't
be selfish; don't try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as
better than yourselves. Don't look out only for your own interests, but
take an interest in others, too. (Philippians 2:3-4)
I find myself in a sad place this morning. I am filled
with self-pity and remorse. Yesterday my mood and determination was broken and
at an all-time low. I feel that I have been self-centred and only looking out
for my own self. I have forgotten what the Lord teaches and I have forgotten to
be humble and I did not look out for the interests of other. I feel numb in my
soul as I start my day and I realise that I have taken the Lord’s words and
ignored them.
How many times are we selfish and self-centred? It is so
easy to look only at our own interests and disregard the interests of other. I feel
that I need to say sorry and that I need to change my focus and return home to
my Lord. I need to break these chains that the world have on me. I need to fall
to my knees and fully give my life to my Lord. I need to be more that this
empty vessel that seems to float pointlessly on a calm ocean. I need to look up
to those mountains again and I I need to remember where my help comes from.
We should stop being selfish and we should never try to impress
other. We should be humble and we should think of other as more than what we
are. We should look out for the interests of other more than we look out for
our own interests.
So today I pray that the Lord will give us a humble heart
and remove all selfishness from our lives. I pray that we will look out for
other and glorify the Lord with each selfless act. I pray for forgiveness. I pray
that we will forgive ourselves and forgive everyone that wronged us in our
lives. I pray that the Lord will lift us up today and fill our Spirits with joy
and peace. I pray for new beginnings as we start our journeys. I pray that the
Lord will restore our faith and lead us to be close to Him. In Jesus name.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
PS. I am leaving the blood moon background on this week
so that I will be a symbol for us to renew our lives and our faith. Our time is
running out. Don’t waste a single moment.
