“IT’S ALL About You”

Well there is something to think about this Lent. Is what I’m doing for Lent just about me or is it about my relationship with God? Am I looking to benefit in some way other than becoming more of the person God is calling me to be? What are my motives for my Lenten commitment?

To some extent it is all about you.

Then he said to all,
 “If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself
and take up his cross daily and follow me.
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
What profit is there for one to gain the whole world
yet lose or forfeit himself?” Luke 9:23-25
