Self-adoration


Philippians 2:3 New Living Translation (NLT)

3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.

 

Glory

 

My thought went to admiration for me and myself

Adored by the masses … being placed on a stage

Singing about Jesus ... for my satisfaction and own praise

Is this called the sickness ... that takes you straight to hell?

 

Christ will not share “His Glory” although He always serves

but He will enjoy with you ... if you chose to be the last

No matter how much He loves ... you cannot take His Place.

He is God and you are His ... a child delivered from the past.
