Conviction
God has a way of convicting me at the right time, in the right place, and with the most random things… I’m reading doctrine, and one of the ”effects of sin on our relationships with other humans” is our inability to empathize. I am far too often wrapped up in myself and my own selfishness…
“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.” - Philippians 2:3-5
My attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus…

yep, but don’t forget, we can’t be like Christ in our OWN strength - Only through the power of his spirit dwelling in us!!! Emmanuel, ‘God with us’… i love that christmas song called ‘O come O come Emmanuel’ - awesome lyrics for a beautiful, reflective time of the year.x
