Jesus was not one bit selfish when He did all that for me. The very actions that He took go much more beyond the words "generous" or "kind" could even describe. He gave everything to give me salvation. How amazing!
How selfish I am! Jesus has given me this wonderful gift of eternal life and yet I am reluctant to share it. There are so many lost souls out there, but how often do I reach out to them. "But it's scary." "What will they think of me?" "I don't know what to say." "I'm busy." Do I think all that Jesus did was not scary? People placed Jesus amongst theives and robbers, was He concerned about what they thought of Him. No, He was concerned for their very souls. Jesus was not too busy to give 33 years to save me. Yes, I don't know what to say, but I can't save anybody anyway. All Jesus requires of me is to go out and open my mouth, He does the rest. I should get out of bed every morning asking God how I can reach someone today. Whether that be a friend, a neighbor, someone at work or some random stranger. Will I be selfish with this wonderful gift?
