Selfless not Selfmore

In times challenges and uncertainty, it is still important to remember that our own interests (self) shouldn’t rule our hearts.

“Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.”
-Philippians 2:4 ESV
“Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.”
-1 Corinthians 10:24 ESV
“We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. For Christ did not please himself, but as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.””
-Romans 15:1-3 ESV
