Good Morning!

MS SABRINA WILLAMS

I have a friend who has dealt with physical challenges and faced multiple surgeries over the past years. Yet if someone has a need....she is there. She is one of my heros.

An Insurance benefits company recently hired the Gallup organization to find out why some people return to work more quickly than others following illness and surgery. They found that the quick returnees almost never think about their physical problems, while those who are slow to come back focus on themselves and their impairment.

When Jesus came to earth, his whole focus was on others, not himself. He taught his followers to do the same thing… to the point that they forgot themselves. He was teaching them not to be self-absorbed.

II Peter chapter 1 reminds us...the more you grow in self-control, Godliness, endurance and love, the more useful and productive you will become.

This is counter to what our basic human nature is, but it works. We live longer, work more productively, and bless others because of it.

Go today, be a blessing to someone... after all...it is good for your health!
