Die to Self
This morning while reading in our Bible Study Priscilla asked the question
"What things is God asking you to set aside to follow Him more closely?"
My answer was " my selfishness and selfconsiousness..self self self self self!
After I finished todays study I was reading in the Psalms a song sung at Passover when out of the blue Fiddler on the Roof came to my mind.
Now I havent seen Fiddler on the Roof in years and wasnt sure what made me think of it.
I was reminded of the song they sang around the table on the Sabboth...
"May they be like Ruth and like Esther, may they be deserving of praise....."
So I thought to myself, what did Ruth and Esther do and I went through thier stories in my mind
Well, they went here, they did that etc..... then it hit me....
They died to self!
(Im so glad God understands how my mind works better than I do.)
They stopped thinking about thier own desires and put God and others ahead of themselves.
May we be like Ruth and like Esther, May we be deserving of praise!
