                    Love then is the giving of self, and as long as we have a body and are working out our salvation, it will always be synonymous with sacrifice, in the Christian sense of the word. Love sacrifices naturally just as the eye sees and the ear hears. That is why we speak of "arrows" and "darts" of

                    ILLUSTRATION - Self Evaluation

State employment officials in Tucson, Arizona, posted an interesting sign over a full-length mirror. Directed to all job hunters, it read, “Would you hire this person?” In another office a mirror and sign posed this question: “Are you

The same way a lot of people have destroyed what the Lord rightly gave to them with their own hands. The case of a governor of one of the states in Nigeria is a very good example. He jumped bail in England and was removed on coming back home. There was also the case of one boy who

                    ON SELF-CONTROL
When I’m at the pizza buffet and I’ve already had more than enough to eat, and I know there’s a good chance another slice will make me miserable for the next 3-4 hours and I eat it anyway .... I lack self control.

The 63 year old man needed bladder surgery, but he couldn't overcome his fear of doctors and hospitals.   So he self-reliantly did what had to be done.  He

                    Self Love Is Ordinary
Self-love is so ordinary that Jesus used it as a reference point: Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” When I was in elementary school, the teacher sometimes solved the first problem on a sheet of homework to show us how the others were solved. Jesus used our love for

One day a certain old, miserly, rich man visited a rabbi, who took him by the hand and led him to a window.  “Look out there,” he said.  And the rich man looked out into the street.
“What do you see?”  asked the rabbi.
