Something Beyond Me
The depth of people’s selfisheness honestly astounds me. Why is it so easy to be so concerned with our “situations” that we ignore completly the feelings and consideration of others?
I am called to Love my neighbor as myself. If I’m so constantly concerned with my “situations” shouldn’t i be even MORE concerned with others around me, the obstacles they are going through, and the interests of thier hearts.
I am created to fulfill a destiny of Salvation to ALL who choose to accept. The catch is, you can’t fulfill the destiny if you are so full of self. People could care less about how much you know, until they know how much you care.
I am created to care, nurture, have compassion; to move in grace, elegance, kindness, and pure of heart.
Self= Human Nature
Human Nature=inherently evil
Therefore, if I constantly move in selfishness I am allowing my flesh, sin nature, to over take what God has given, His Son as a living Sacrifice,Redeemer of all Hearts.
So technically you could say,”allowing myself to be focused on ‘whats going on in my world’ discredits my true Salvation”
I know its a bold statement, but vibe with my for a second.
If I so badly desire to spend eternity in Heaven with my creator, then i will obey His commandments. Which then leads to obeying the “comission” of going into all the world and making disciples of all men. Having a heart for others requires Love above all else, self-sacrificing Love.
unselfish Love
To be filled with God’s Love we can’t be filled with self.
How, then, are we to reign in our focus and direct it to others, so that we may fulfill the ONLY thing God TRUELY desires us to do
”Love God, Love People”
I think I’m just really sick of hearing people talk about thier “problems”, and honestly Im sick of thinking about my own pointless “problems”. If only i could bum around the world and experience REAL RAW DESPERATE problems…
please comment back and let me know your thoughts! i might be making no sense whatsoever and you might have a different perspective on this, so let me know what you think, be honest.
FYI this may be a little manic-like because im kinda jumbling around just trying to process emotions logically which doesnt always work…
