Overcoming Ourselves is the Greatest Gift

“Above all the grace and the gifts that Christ gives to his beloved is that of overcoming self.” - Francis of Assisi

The day we stop worrying about what other people are doing and not, the day we focus on ourselves, our thinking, our habits, our behaviors, our actions and reactions- is the first day of our liberation. It’s the first day of our transformation.

We can’t control what anyone else does. If we waiting on other people to change, if we are waiting for other people to do what we believe is the right thing, we just may be waiting forever.

Body, mind, and spirit, we ask God to grow us in every aspect of our lives. We ask for a pure heart so that our motivations and intentions are good. We ask God to change our mindset so that our thinking is sound. We ask God to help us develop the discipline and consistency to be good stewards of our physical bodies.

When we are fully aligned, mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually with our highest possibilities and purposes for this time and place, we will find that is greatest blessing we could ever experience.
