Good morning, Jesus
Give us a more compassionate heart today, Lord. In this fallen world, we’re tempted to keep ourselves number one, and then if we can, or if we have time, we’ll help others. But Lord, that’s not like You. Your Word tells us that to be Your follower, we need to put what we want at the back and look to the needs of others first. You warned us how easily we fall into temptation in what Your Word says is “vain conceit,” where the world revolves around us. If we’re honest, we should be the humblest people on earth. We recognize that we have what we have, and we are who we are, only by Your grace alone. According to Your Word in Philippians 2, let us value others and their needs above ourselves and our needs. In all our relationships, help us develop the mindset of our Lord Jesus Christ. As He came to serve others and show us the Father, may we do the same. Let Your compassion be our compassion, Your love our love, Your grace our grace in all our dealings. Help us be a friend to the lonely, a listening ear to the wounded in spirit, a divine kindness to the rejected. And in Your miraculous way, when we’re obedient and put others first, You bless us, and all our needs are met
Serving others as we serve You, Jesus, Amen.
THANKFUL
