2:21 ” For everyone looks out for his own interests, not those of Jesus Christ”
All of us do tend to keep ourselves busy when we have our own interests, instead of reading the Bible, visiting the homeless and the poor, sharing the Good News, and many things that God is waiting on us to do and enjoy His things than our own interests. That is very sad situation to see that many Christians and Non Christians are still doing their own interests than doing for Jesus Christ. Christians need to learn how to stop doing their own interests such as sports, shopping, bla, bla that are not related to Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ does not care about the material stuff, He truly cares about the people such as to help, visit, cook for the homeless, share His good news, teach, and sing as well. They need to enjoy focusing on what God wants us to enjoy His special interest.
How about the Non Christians? I have written and told you all again about the Non Christians, just pray for them to open their minds and hearts about the Truth–The Bible.
Very hard to understand and imagine how much we need to take care of His Special interest that God gave us after we received Jesus Christ into our hearts than our own interests.
I did deal to overcome my own interest. I used to spend doing my research about the cooking and collecting the recipes. It did not fill me very much excited to enjoy enough.
When I became a friend of Jesus Christ I was very excited and looking forward to enjoy His interests. The Holy Spirit has wonderfully done to me. I am thankful because I still keep asking our Father Lord to fire my heart and my mind to have the excitement and gladness. In fact I fell in love with my new own interest to spend reading, thinking, writing, creating, praying, praising, questioning, researching the Bible with all my curiosity, and many things that God shared His special secret with me for the hopeless to accomplish having His Son Jesus Christ in their hearts. It will be a long road to triumph overcoming the obstacles. I am smiling right now as the Holy Spirit tells me to be faithful.
