Do Not dwell On Your Own Troubles

Wednesday night at bible study,our worship leader gave a very powerful testimony. He said that he had been focusing on his own troubles and situation that day, when the Holy Spirit spoke to him. He was told "Don't forget who you are, what you do and who you represent." He was so into his own problems that he could not see the needs of others, thereby, he would not be effective in his ministry. He said later on he was approached by a woman who needed prayer. If he had not allowed those words to make a change, he would have been too caught up in his own problems to meet her need. We cannot be representatives of God if we focus on ourselves. We have to look beyond our own lives and look at what others need, then we will be showing the love of God and doing his will.

Not our will Lord, but your will be done in our lives for as we help others, our needs are met.
