Sometimes it takes me a long time to understand something but when I do I am so excited!
Today is one of those days. I am reading a new book by Jeff Goins entitled Wrecked. And he talks about in order to get to know ourselves better and to know what we are to do with our lives is to find "What's broken that needs to be fixed." Then we are to do something about it.
When we become interested in a dying world and realize that our talents, gifts, and passions are not for just us to enjoy, but we are to give them away in order to help others.
By sharing our lives with others, which the Bible tells us to do also, we dye to self and we are truly alive.
So do you know someone today who is hurting and maybe a phone call, or a note, or an e-mail would cheer them up?
Get excited by giving yourself away. There is pain involved and sacrifices but all the joy and true freedom and peace you can have by sharing.
