A note to me

Dear Me,

We love ourselves.  We have taken care of ourselves since we were little. Making sure we got what we wanted; the biggest cookie on the plate, the comfiest chair, etc. but what about when we got older?  Maybe now it's finally, hey, let's think about others and their needs. We can wait on that new toy or game after looking at our budget. We can wake up and take care of the sick baby. But how often do we choose not to? I love me, but I can't keep living for you is so often what we ultimately come to. We can choose the straight and narrow path, but we can't take ourselves with us. To truly find Jesus, we must come to the end of ourselves. Dear me, this is the end of you.

Sincerely,

Me
