Scripture: Philippians 2:1-11
Everyone should look out not only for his interest, but also for the interest of others. Make your own attitude that of Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:4-5).
Observation:
Though it is important to take care of one's self, we are called to take care of others, and do so with the attitude of Christ.
Application:
It seems almost human nature to have a "me first" attitude. But we must remember we are all created equal and called to love each other as ourselves.
Prayer:
Lord, forgive me of self centered and selfish thoughts and actions. Remind me that you came to save the world and not just me.
Yield:
I must yield an attitude of selfishness.
