Maybe all mankind is self-centered and I just haven’t taken time to notice it as significantly as I should.  God, however, is wanting me to not only see it in all of mankind, but He is truly wanting me to see it within myself.  Yesterday was a good day in that I got done all the detail items I had on my mental list. I was feeling good about this but this morning I was checked about the good feeling when I realized everything on the list was about me and my wants.  I was far more interested in gratifying my wants than I was with fulfilling God’s. I was originally to spend the day in another part of the state with a school district.  They contacted me asking to reschedule.  This allowed me to use the day to get a number of little items done.  The nudges I’d had to make contacts with ones during the day didn’t happen.  These are the men God has placed in my life for support of one another.  I contacted none of them.  I simply went about doing “my” business.  God pointed out to me this morning that if I’m going to “love Him with all my heart, soul and mind….” (Matthew 22:37-39), I need to address these selfish priorities of mine.  I already know for a fact that the details of my day are never left dangling when God’s priorities are done first.  He doesn’t see my needs as trite, but, He knows His priorities are spiritual and mine are simply human.

Today, I surrender this self-centeredness.  I want God’s priorities to be mine first and foremost.  To God be all Glory.
