Be selfish. This is the world’s answer – the flesh’s answer, even – to how you can find personal happiness. Look out for your own needs and interests, because if you don’t, no one else will. Pursue what you want in life, provide for your own satisfaction. Do what you want to do. Then you’ll be happy! So says our flesh. In contrast, God’s call on your life is that you use the gifts he has given you for the good of his people and for the glory of his Son.
