Some people need to unlearn some things before they can start learning what God wants for them. For example, some people try to manipulate others with their self-pity or anger. They believe these emotional tools will get what they want from others. Some people who have been hurt or abused feel that they have to take care of themselves because nobody else will.
Both attitudes display the common fear, “What about me? What about me?” But Paul offers us a life-changing principle to follow—I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me (Galatians 2:20 NIV). When Christ lives through you, you will enjoy every day of your life.
Prayer Starter: Lord, I don’t want to live my life thinking about myself and thinking everything is all about me. Help me to lean on you and let You live through me, amen
