"Trying to Be More Like JESUS"
There is a lot of hurt and pain to be found in this world at times, and some people never realize the magnitude of it all. As the saying goes, I was complaining about the pain in my legs when I met a man who had no legs at all. Also, when I was complaining about how bad my feet were hurting and aching, I met someone who had no feet at all. There are many examples in life, such as this, to be found everywhere, and all anyone has to do is to just think about what other people might be going through in life to appreciate the predicament in which they might find themselves. It can be so easy to feel sorry for one's self, especially when all you can see is what is happening to you. When JESUS CHRIST went to the cross, He was only thinking about all of you and not Himself. The punishment and the suffering that He endured were for all of you, and blessed are all of you who can remember and appreciate that.
From this day forth, My children, know that even when things might look bad for you, there are others for whom things are looking just as bad or worse. Instead of placing all of your emphasis on self and self-pity, try to think about what others might be facing or going through at the time. Remember, it is not saying that what you feel does not matter, just realize that you are not the only one who is in pain. Be mindful of others and their plight, and it will help to relieve some of the pressure on you, because I will be right there with you to help see you through it all. Now may you have a JESUS state of mind, as when He thought more about others than self, in His Holy and Most Precious Name.
AMEN
