me, me, me

Isn't it funny how the whole world is all about self, not about helping others but making sure you get to the top, and are better than others... okay so may not everyone feels that way, but the thing we care about most is ourselves, we want a new gun, or a new phone, or a new car, we want new clothes, we want that new pair of shoes that are just the "hottest" of the season.. even when we pray its about what we want. well thats how it is for me. rather than saying "God I know you have a plan and your will is going to happen and I trust in that I dont want anything I simply NEED you!!" we say "God I want a new job, or God please give me that pay raise, or God I want to have a different house, car or whatever" as i sit here and think about what is going on in my life and trying to figure out how to deal with it all i realize while i have been praying about this situation i have been praying about what I want and what I think I need, maybe im going about this in all the wrong ways... just some food for thought
