Selfishness Is Not Righteousness

Proverbs 14:14 "The backslider in heart will be filled with his own ways, but a good man (or woman) will be satisfied from above."


This scripture is so powerful. It is basically talking about to stop seeking our own desires and start seeking the desires of the heart of God. When we take our minds off God and start looking at what we do not have, sometimes that can cause us to back slide. Back slide meaning come out of the will of God and start making our own decisions to try to please our selves. When start trying to please ourselves, it usually leads to sin. I am writing this to let everyone know to keep your minds and hearts on things above. God wants to give us what our hearts desire but we have to let Him. We also have to seek Him first and live a life that is pleasing in His sight. It is time for us as Christians to truly be selfless and be God more.
