We need to stand up and get real. Our number one enemy is not some other person, it is not the devil, it is ... Our own selfishness.
All of us need to come to terms with this and begin to look at life with a different perspective. Our lives are meant to be about God and His glory and then serving and caring for other people. All of the horrible things we do to others need to stop. I keep hearing about how life is not going well, about how other people or my spouse treat me poorly. Yes there are times when others are really being abusive and mean, but usually the problem is US!
Most of our issues stem from our lives not being the way we want them to be. You see as people we default back to being the centre of our own universe. The problem is that this position is reserved for God and not us. We are not even called to be right next to centre, we are called to the end of the line.
Men if you want your wife, children, friends family, church, etc... to respond better to your needs. Then start showing healthy leadership and beign tghe example of sacrificial servanthood and caring for all of their needs. It is time to MAN UP and lead things in a healthy driection. Be who you are supposed to be, not to get others to change, but because it is who you are to be. Then your example will speak for itself, much like the example of Jesus Christ speaks volumes to me everyday.
Stand up and take on Enemy #1, yourself!
It all started with Fellowship Baptist Church HIT Men ministry. Honesty Integrity Transparency is what it is about. No holds barred, we will walk together through this life, challenging and encouraging each other in our faith!
