Hillsong United - Aftermath by hillsongeneration
What did you stress over this week? What did you complain about? What were you annoyed about?

Sometimes I'm struck by the bubble we live in. I get so consumed with myself, my world, my troubles ... even my pursuit of sainthood. I think you can get too worried about it instead of just "being" and loving and remaining self-less.

There are so many people in the world, our brothers and sisters in Christ, who are going through real struggles. This Christian Egyptian woman is mourning the loss of a loved one.

Looking at the news can either be depressing, or it can open your eyes and take you outside of yourself. It can put life in perspective so that the small things cease to trouble you.

I am so blessed and though I could make a list of things to complain about, what's the point?

My heart goes out to this woman. I love how prayer works. How it connects us to people who we never will know.

God bring comfort today to someone in the midst of the wars and unrest in the middle east, take my humble sacrifices and don't use them in my life, use them where they're most needed today.Pin It
