Check your "Self"

Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will bless you for it. (1 Peter 3:9 NLT)

Self wants to defend. Self wants to fight. Self wants what's best for self. We can choose to serve self, or we can choose to serve Jesus. Jesus always serves, always loves, always gives. He is never about self. He is always about you and me. We have to make the choice every day....to choose self, or to choose Jesus...what is your choice today?
