I have to decide (and work on) getting myself out of the way.<br /><br />I can choose to sit on the throne of my life, deciding that I know better than God how to run my life. And I can point to examples of how badly that has turned out. Or I can choose to Exalt God Only, putting the Lord on the throne, and bow and worship Him.<br /><br />The opportunities that you list are worthy - they edify others, and are done in the name of the Lord. They are giving and serving times, not selfish times. They feed others instead of exalting me.<br /><br />As we go through these activities and Lead Like Jesus, God's goodness will overflow as our hope does - not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12044374080933254582noreply@blogger.com
