E.G.O.

8/23/10 Edging God Out….that’s what our ego does. It puts self in the forefront. The more of self, the less of God….a “more of me less of Thee” concept. With this mentality that is so prevalent in a “ME first” / “watch out for # 1” society, problems abound. Why? We become our own god---thinking our purpose on earth is for our pleasure/happiness and comfort. But God says………….
You shall have no other gods before Me. (Deuteronomy 5:7)
To find true joy, change your purpose. Follow God’s word.
'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself. (Luke 10:27)
Love God first, neighbor second and then self----it’s the way to live well---“dance” if you will!
