A Daily Devotional

In our world of trying to make us believe our main job in life is taking care of ourselves first, God's mission for each of us is to be His servant and witness on earth. At first glance, the idea of God wanting servants sounds pretty pathetic. At first glance, it sounds as if God is this incredible egomaniac who wants everyone to scurry around devoting their life just for Him at their expense. However, if we look deeper at the issue of our being a servant and witness, we see our service for God is for our own renewal, for our own benefit, and for our own good. God is not an ego-filled being as we understand ego-filled beings in this world. God is a being of love. God is a giving being who seeks to give His love to each of us. God is the opposite of egomania. God's purpose and will in our life is to rescue us from the dangers of our own egomania. When we are born, we are born with a void within us naturally filled with our own selfishness and our own will. However, when we commit an unnatural act of our will by turning away from our emptiness then God produces results within our being by filling us with infinite love, infinite understanding, and infinite compassion. The source of our infinite love, infinite understanding, and infinite compassion is God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
