It's Not About Me!


I read a book the other day by Max Lucado, "It's Not About Me".  Perhaps if there comes a day that everyone realizes that our lives are not about us, we can all overcome our emotional bounds to such unhealthy relationships.  I know that is what I strive for because there is NO person above God--- if that person leads me away from God and I lose that internal peace, I know I'm on a track God does not want me to be on and MUST change that direction in my life-- despite the pain it might cause.  Why?  Because it is NEVER about me-- it is all about Him. 


Take Care!

The first books I've ever completed from beginning to end AND in a matter of a week or less-- sometimes even in a day on a weekend when I have nothing going on and just want to have some peaceful relaxation are Max Lucado.  He is such a great author and offers easy to read and understand analogy of our lives as they should be according to God.  :)  


A couple of others I can recommend are "When God Whispers Your Name" and "A Love Worth Giving"-- both are incredible.  I've found that ANY book by him though is incredible so you can be sure that whenever you pick out one of his books, you'll be enlightened. 


Take Care!
