| | The sermon from yesterday spoke on Ephesians 2:1-10. Maybe it's merely a coincidence that all of Rev. Kim's sermon's have pertained to the happenings of the prior week, but I've been tremendously blessed.
Yes, I've been "dead" and sinned against God; I've been disobedient and lost myself to the desires of this world; I've held anger and bitterness in my heart for the sake of my own pride.
BUT...
But because of God's unending love for us, His grace and His mercy, we are made alive again. Such a simple word as "but" changes everything. We are able to make a 180 and finally live again.
Want to know how to experience true joy in your lives? By serving and loving in this order:
Jesus
Others
You
The worldly view is the other way around. First loving yourself before you can love others. I wrote about it not long ago. I do agree it's difficult to love others or serve others if you don't love yourself. However, true joy comes from loving Jesus first and foremost, then others, and yourself. Being self-less. |
