What have you done for others today? So often I find myself so caught up in today, and my worries and concerns that I forget about other people. True joy is found in Christ, and I believe as we become more like him we begin to think of others more, and ourselves less.
Yes, people will let us down and make us wonder why we invest in others, but hopefully it will remind us that even though we have nothing we can give God, He delights in us, and reaches out to us daily.
