THINK ABOUT: SELFISHNESS
1 Kings 21:1–7
It’s funny how quickly we adults turn into children when we don’t get what we want. We pout, we beg, we turn on the charm or the guilt—whatever serves our purposes. King Ahab (a grown man, the ruler of a kingdom) decided not to eat. How childish! Too often when we want something, we want it now. However, God doesn’t excuse our selfishness as childish immaturity. A selfish attitude opens us up for serious consequences when we don’t relinquish our rights to God. Are you harboring selfishness? Don’t sacrifice what is important trying to possess what you don’t truly need.
