The Problem of Self


I’m a pretty selfish guy, so let me try to cover some of it in one post.

There is something in life that I want to happen soon, and every time I think it’s close to happening, it’s like a turtle who retreats his head right back in to the shell. I am frustrated, discontented, and feel incredibly unfulfilled because of this. So …

Please pray that I would grow up. God knows what He’s doing, and who do I think I am practicing such discontentedness? I am ashamed of myself, and fear that my affections have gotten grossly misdirected. I’m not speaking of moralism, and how I need to do more (although, I most certainly do need to be). I have not been loving the Assembly of God’s People as much. I have not been loving family worship with my daughter as much. I have not been hating my sin as I ought, and feel a bit of laxity and callousedness toward it. But the right motivation of all these things has apparently not been my primary concern as of late; thus, I could use some prayer (and a swift kick in the …)

So, thanks for your prayers concerning my selfishness and my pathetic resemblance of living like those who have no hope.
