All About Me

18 If a person is lazy and doesn’t repair the roof,
    it will begin to fall. If he refuses to fix it,
    the house will leak.

19 A party makes you feel good. And wine makes you feel happy.
But both cost you a lot of money. Ecclesiastes 10:18-19 (ICB)

Why are we lazy? We, not you.

Why do we think a party is good?

What causes so many to believe happiness comes from a bottle?

Truth. All three questions have one answer.

It’s about me. Being blunt: It’s about selfishness.

But leaky roofs, parties and bottles of wine aren’t the only selfish things we do.

This sound familiar?

Hoarding, ignoring, manipulating, refusing to share, lacking empathy…

me first, breaking promises.

Get the picture? Both of us have been there.

One more drives the nail: failure to apologize.

Not too harsh…

Our selfishness was paid for on a cross.
