It's so easy to be focused on myself. It's so natural. It's so easy to get busy trying to bring God into my activity that I don't even notice Him at work around me. He seeks to redirect my attention, but it's so easy to fall into the trap of evaluating everything by how it affects me. This is the epitome of selfishness.
I'm much less selfish than I used to be, but I'm nowhere near how selfless I want to be.
"But wait a minute, you're a follower of Jesus. You shouldn't be selfish." I know, I know. I'm not perfect, and I'll be the first to tell you. I've never claimed to be. I preach Jesus, not myself.
"Okay, that is hypocritical." I disagree. I never claimed to be perfect. In fact, I admitted that I wasn't. If anything, this increases my passion for Jesus. I know that everyone else is just like me. Human. Everyone else struggles with imperfection too. This is one of the reasons I worship Jesus with arms high and my heart abandoned. Come join me...
