What matters most in our lives?
Can you name the most important things?
Many of us live as people pleasers.
We squander thought, energy, and passion pursuing praise and accolades from others. The bitter fruit we received was pride as we succeeded, then despair when we failed, and envy when others accomplished more than us.
None of us want to live this way, but we feel trapped and are therefore uncertain how to overcome the shallow, selfish inclinations of our hearts.
We all know our hearts are selfish and deceitful. We often give God and those around us our most shallow attention.
What is your attention directed toward today, is it Christ and serving others or serving self?
