    We have a world filled with people competing with each other to survive instead of relying on each other for survival. We have a world that is selfish and self centered instead of selfless and self sacrificing.

    How often are you tempted to think you’re more important than you really are? We like to be the center of attention. We like to promote ourselves. We like to receive praise from other people. We like the applause of others. It causes us to be more concerned about self than God and others.

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 19, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,633 views

    When our needs are real, we want genuine answers, not just appeasements. Look to self-esteem, look to the resources already present, and look to the Lord of victory for real answers.

Do you expect a clear-cut, usable answer to your request, or are you satisfied if you are just told, well, have a nice day? When you need something, and you ask for it, which really satisfies ...read more
