"Do nothing from selfishness...
but with humility of mind
regard one another as more important
than yourselves; do not merely
look out for your own personal interests,
but also for the interests of others.
Have this attitude in yourselves
which was also in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 2:3-5, bold mine
Do NOTHING! from selfishness? Are you kidding me? I thought the "golden rule" was good enough. You know, "Do unto others as..." (see Matthew 7:12).
"Bless those who curse you,
pray for those who mistreat you...
Bless those who persecute you;
bless and do not curse...
Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good."
-Luke 6:28, bold mine
see Romans 12:13-21
Again...ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
About 25 years ago I adopted as my own personal life mission statement:
To get to know Jesus Christ
and Represent Him in Everything I do.
You know what? I gotta be honest with you...
I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS GETTING MYSELF INTO!!!
