Love this. It’s so true that we get the “I” in everything and it usually gets us in trouble. Haha
I have been reading Book of Timothy and Titus where Paul in prison in Rome encourages them and prays for them while he waits for his own execution.
He longs to see Timothy but it’s doubtful that Timothy could make that long trip to Rome. He himself spent some time in jail.
I am sure he was disappointed not to see Paul before he died. They had prayed for each other and did ministry together. But still they had the sweetness of friendship and hardships of suffering. Reminds me there’s always sweetness and also sadness in ministry. But the real blessing we know Paul and Timothy are still enjoying their Heavenly reunion. That encourages me.
So is it fair to summarize this as saying I just need to get outta my own way, and focus on others?
Actually I’ve been praying for others a lot lately. Taken a step back looking at the bigger bigger picture.
