It's a beautiful morning. I lost all my work when someone tried to hack into my computer/server a few minutes ago. I have no idea where I'll start or what I'll do but when you hit God-is-in-control mode, some things don't really matter.

I'm getting mixed stories about Uganda. Hopefully everything is alright - I can feel God-is-in-control mode kicking in there too.

This week I want to know: what can I do for you? A friend of mine shared with me just how tired she is of being used, and we thought about it and figured if you're busy loving, you won't have time to notice who uses you or doesn't love you back. Enough with consciously or subconsciously making connections just for my benefit. Now I don't want to know what he/she can do or has done for me. For every person I encounter, in every aspect of my life, I want to wonder what I can do for them, give to them, how I can help them... and I want to act on it. I pray that the Lord will use us all in the lives of others and teach us that it's not about gaining, but about serving.

  1. amazing. i was just about to post a question;- 'love other people, at the cost of my self?'. u got round to posting the answer first. when u focus more on being more like Christ in loving people, you have less time to focus on you being loved by people. or by your self.
