Stop feeling Sorry for Yourself & do something for God!

 

Greetings to you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.Have you ever thought to yourself "Man I'm such a failure?" Ever felt like no matter what you do nothing seems to go right? Well I certaintly have and I am here to tell you beloved you are suffering from what I like to call a dangerous dose of self-pity and selfishness and oh yeah don't forget our buddy pride. Yeah... that's right way to crash your party right? While most may be intrigued by this blog because of the title ..this is no feel good message. You would assume that the proper response for this would be to tell you that everythings going to be ok, just keep on beleieving and you will get through it eventually.WRONG ANSWER! dont get me wrong words of encouragment are great and a very much so needed within the body but sometimes we also need someone to really tell us the truth about ourselves so that we can wake up and realize that while we are spending time navel gazing someone is dying on our watch. Truth is no matter how many times someone tells you your not a failure until you change your mind you will still feel the same This deadly diesase has come to sit on many in the body of Christ so that we will stay complacent and never do anything for God. You can't fix yourself nor will waddling in self-pity help you break free. We do not serve a God that can not sympathize with us in our weaknesses (Hebrews 4:10).  Which means everything that your going through it has a purpose. People are dying on our watches as we sit and navel gaze on things that we can not change.I want to encourage you not to live hope.We are truly living in the last days when many will turn away from the faith because of hopelessness and discouragment. Gird up the lions of your mind, get serious and do something for God!! People are dying and there is a war going on. Now is not the time to feel sorry for yourself but now is the time to stand firm get in theWord find out what God says about you and overcome!   Feel free to share your experience :)

 

Scriptures:

• 1 Peter 1:13 Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming.
 
• Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
