Renouncing the Parasite Mentality.

Proverbs 30:15-16. Why is it so hard to be satisfied with what we have? Is it because we are born with a "parasite" (sin) called selfishness? Is it because we live in a world that is self-centered and we developed a worldly mentality? If you stop and search your heart (i did it), you will realize how many times you will acted selfishly. Why? Because it's a SIN that we don't pay much attention to it, many times we are not even aware that we are been selfish. E.g.: How many times we fought for our rights not caring for the other person's rights? I'm not saying that we have to agree with injustice, but look what Paul says: 1 Corinthians 6:6-7. See what God says: Hebrews 10:30-31. Why is it so hard to allow ourselves to be cheated (wronged) and trust the Lord to repay? It's because of our sense of pride and revenge. As they say: "I don't get mad, i get even". Selfishness tells us that we are "VIP" and we deserve the best treatment. As a leech, the selfish needs to "drain" other peoples resources (be served). If you are married, you know how hard it is to SERVE our spouse, we are always trying to ENFORCE our rights. As christians, we are called to SERVE one another, to LOOSE in order to GAIN, to DIE in order to LIVE. John 8:36. JESUS SET US FREE TO BE SERVANTS, NOT DESPOTS! The more we serve, the more God will give us the means to serve. The less we serve, the more we will be slave of our selfishness. I know it is hard, but it is a discipline, the more we practice, the better servants we will become. Matthew 20:25-28. How can we go from SELFISH to SERVANT? Romans 12:2. The only way to renounce the parasite mentality is learning with Jesus Christ how to serve on another. 1 Corinthians 2:16.
