Phil 2:4 “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better then yourselves.  Each of you should not only look to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
prayer
 
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:”
 

As i spend time in prayer lately i have concluded that our very nature is selfish.   So living this verse is very challenging.  I meditate on this concept and i am very convicted.
 
Jesus forgive me!!!  I focus on my happiness, and my goals.  I ask questions sometimes to set the other person up to hear what i would like to.
 
I have found myself speaking to be heard and respected and not everything i say and do is for your glory, sometimes its for my own.  I repent and ask you to continue exposing these areas of my life and help me to be more like you in all i do.
 
I can fool others but you see into my heart Lord.  You know my intentions and my thoughts. And you love me in spite of them. How undeserved is your love for me!!!!!!!!
 
I worship you and thank you Lord for your grace and love. Thank you for the joy and peace you fill me with.
 
I will praise your name for eternity. I love you.
