Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a difference(a grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has [freely] forgiven you, so must you also [forgive]. ( Colossians 3:13 )

Sadly, many people don't make it through the storms of life. Or they give up or they start doing and saying foolish things and abort the journey altogether.It is easy to begin, but God is looking for people who will finish.

The apostle Paul declared the stand that he would take in order to complete his journey:

, But none of these things move me; neither do I esteem my life dear to myself, if only I may finish my course with joy. Acts 20:24

Are you living up to your potential? God made you with potential - potential for greatness! If you do what you can do, and trust Him to do what you can't, you will grow into the person He gave you the potential to be!

This is the day which the Lord has brought about; we will rejoice and be glad in it ( Psalm 118:24 )

If to save one self for the greater self is considered a selfish trait. Then everyone should have the trait.

It is not about doing what we feel like. It is about doing what God says.
