“Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had” Philippians 2:4-5
That means you’re most like Jesus when you’re focusing on the hurts of somebody else rather than your own hurts.

A friend bumped into his pirate buddy on the street, “Hey, I haven’t seen you in a while. What happened? You look terrible.”
“What do you mean?” said the pirate, “I feel fine.”
“What about the wooden leg? You didn’t have that before.”
“Well, we were in a battle and I got hit with a cannonball, but I’m fine now.”
“Well, okay, but what about that hook? What happened to your hand?”
“We were in another battle. I boarded a ship and got into a sword fight. My hand was cut off, I got fitted with a hook. I’m fine, really.”
“What about that eye patch?”
“Oh, one day we were at sea and a flock of birds flew over, I looked up and one of them pooped in my eye.”
“You’re kidding,” said the friend, “You couldn’t lose an eye just from that!”
“It was my first day with the hook.”

1 Peter 1:2a, “Dear friends, God the Father chose you long ago and knew you would become his children”
God didn’t choose you because of something you’ve done. It’s all because of who he is. It doesn’t matter how good you are, or how smart you are, or how spiritual you are. God saved you because he loves you.

A husband and wife, both getting on in years, are in bed one morning.
He takes her hand, and she says, “Don’t touch me.”
He says, “Why not?”
She answers, ” Because I’m dead.”
Husband says, “What are you talking about? We’re lying here talking to one another.”
The wife says, “No, I’m definitely dead.”
Her husband insists, “You’re not dead. What makes you think you’re dead?”
His wife answers, “I know I’m dead because I woke up this morning, and nothing hurts.”

Romans 9:20, “My friend, I ask, ‘Who do you think you are to question God? Does the clay have the right to ask the potter why he shaped it the way he did?’” (CEV).
Whenever we doubt God’s love and wisdom, we always get into trouble. The root behind these problems is that you don’t trust God.

You know you are a bad cook when …..
– You consider it a culinary success if the pop-tart stays in one piece.
– Your dog goes to the neighbors’ to eat.
– Your family buys Alka Seltzer and Kaopectate in bulk.
– When you barbecue, two of your kids hold water guns and the third stands ready by the phone with 911 on speed-dial.
– Your family automatically heads for the dinner table every time they hear a fire truck siren.
– The EPA insists that all your garbage cans be marked with bright red bio-hazard symbols.
– Your microwave display reads “TILT!”
– Your two best recipes are meatloaf and apple pie, but your dinner guests can’t tell which is which.
– Your pie filling bubbles over and eats the enamel off the bottom of the oven.

What doesn’t kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humor.

2 Timothy 1:7, “God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”
That means if you let God’s Spirit fill your life, you’re going to be filled with power, love, and self-discipline. And God’s love overcomes fear.

Pardon me, lady,” said the man trying to get back to his seat in the darkened movie theater, “but did I step on your toes a few minutes ago?”
“You certainly did!” said the woman in the aisle seat.
“Good, then I’m in the right row,” the man said as he went back to his seat.

What’s the difference between an optimist and a pessimist? An Optimist only wears a belt. A Pessimist wears a belt, suspenders, and carries safety pins.

“[God] comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others . . . When we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer” 2 Corinthians 1:4a, 6
This is called redemptive suffering. Redemptive suffering is when you go through a problem or a pain for the benefit of others.
This is what Jesus did. When Jesus died on the cross, he didn’t deserve to die. He went through that pain for your benefit so that you can be saved and go to Heaven.

A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor’s office.
“Is it true,” she wanted to know, “that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?”
“Yes, I’m afraid so,” the doctor told her.
There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied, “I’m wondering, then, just how serious is my condition, because this prescription is marked 鮮O REFILLS.'”
