Thursday, March 11, Selfish ambition

How do I guard against selfish ambition. The devotional indicates that by focusing more on serving Jesus, selfish ambition fades and becomes less and less. I have to agree. As I get older, the things I used to count as important, house, cars, and in general owning things, is becoming less important. I am becoming more interested in getting to heaven and seeing that those I love and come in contact with see Christ in me and will choose to go His way, too. Father help me see what is truly important and keep me focused on accomplishing your work.
