When we are Born Again, this is how our priorities change:
It's NOT about me,
It's all for God.
It's NOT about how I look,
It's how God looks AT me.
It's NOT about my pride,
It's about God's humbleness.
It's NOT about MY failures,
It's about God's successes.
It's NOT about my past,
It's about God's future FOR us.
It's NOT about what I want to hear,
It's what God WANTS me to hear.
It's NOT about how I hurt,
It's about how God heals.
It's NOT about how far away I feel from God,
It's about how CLOSE God is to me.
It's NOT about my sins,
It's about God's forgivness.
It's NOT about what I want,
It's about what God wants.
It's NOT about my understanding,
It's about what God's leading.
It's NOT about my desires,
It's about what God desires FOR me.
It's NOT about my needs,
It's about what God KNOWS I need.
It's NOT about my hate,
It's about God's love.
It's NOT about my fear,
It's about God's courage.
It's NOT about my ignorance,
It's about God's knowledge.
It's NOT about my selfishness,
It's about God's selflisness.
It's NOT about my weaknesses,
It's about God's strength.
It's NOT about my works,
It's about God working THROUGH me.
It's NOT about my now,
It's about God's eternity!
