We are a mix of thoughts and desires. Our opinions overtake our compassion. The desired end for our own goals supersedes the goals for the good of others. Even the most outspoken for others battles selfishness along the way.
Not us, but you Lord. Not our will, but yours.
Help us see that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed to us.
Let that fuel our words and actions more than just help us "survive" the present. If we know none of our sufferings can compare to the coming glory, we have strength to sacrifice our comfort, our safe cocoons, to live out the gospel in word and deed.
There are those who can not fight for themselves right now. Let us each find that group that has been placed on our hearts, the ones who at this moment can not fight for themselves. and let us carry their burden; not of our own strength and for our own glory, but with the power of heaven and for the glory of our Father.
