Making the most of every opportunity.
Sometimes we tend to acquire the Victim Mentality. This happens to the best of us if we are not on guard. We become focused on our --> Self. Our pain, hurts, problems, goals, struggles, failures, etc. Its a very difficult place to let ourselves remain.
We forget to embrace the purpose for which God has designed us. We are Not designed to be focused on ourselves. Selfishness is definitely not a character trait we acquire from God.
We are called to a Greater Calling. We are called to be focused on Him! On Him who created Heaven and Earth. Him Who speaks in a way that baffles our mind with His complex simplicity but awakens our heart with unconditional captivating love! Him Who demonstrates His love in a genuine, creative, life giving way.
God frees us from ourselves. Being selfish is a form of captivity. We are no longer slaves to our past failures; sins, habits, regrets. We have victory to overcome our selfish ways! And that victory comes from Jesus Christ our Savior.
Don't attend pity parties. Don't throw pity parties for our--> self. As soon as we allow our focus to be taken off of God and placed on ourself, we start back sliding and fall into a victim mentality.
We are called to live life as Victors. To embrace the Victory we received thru Christ Jesus! Time should never be wasted. Learn to make the most of every opportunity! Be victorious!
I-Corinthians 15:57
"Thanks be to God! He gives us the victory though our Lord Jesus Christ!"
"Victory is a gift that we receive as we look away from ourselves and to Him "
-Elfriede Schaeffer
Make every effort to bring your focus back to the One and Only True Victorious King!!
