From a Friend

I received an e-mail tonight from a friend; a very close friend.

He shared some wisdom that hit me between the eyes in the best way possible.

"...when I am serving or thinking about others and not myself, I am filled up with God's peace and joy and those things actually benefit me, my heart, my soul. I don't want to waste my time here by living selfishly in a way that is neither beneficial or constructive to me or God's kingdom."

I couldn't have said it better myself.

What an awesome goal.
