today

today was a great day. God reminded me of so many things that i so often seem to push aside and forget. I was reminded once again of how selfish I am as an individual and how selfish we are so many times as a community. God has called us to be different. He has called us not to be served but to serve! Not to be loved but to love!

this quote today really made me think: "i declare that God owns it all, yet I act with all the manic possessiveness of a sleep-deprived toddler at a Christmas party."
