“My counsel is this: Live freely, animated and motivated by God’s Spirit. Then you won’t feed the compulsions of selfishness. For there is a root of sinful self-interest in us that is at odds with a free spirit, just as the free spirit is incompatible with selfishness. These two ways of life are contrary to each other, so that you cannot live at times one way and at times another way according to how you feel on any given day.” -Galatians‬ ‭5:16-17 (msg)

Lord, let the gift of Life you have given me be used to glorify you today. Check my heart so that I don’t suffocate your Spirit with my self-interest, but instead, learn to walk trusting in You, Your Sovereign, Perfect Love. Amen.
