Savior.

I think a problem with Christians is that sometimes we confuse the idea of sharing our good news with others and being someone's savior.


Sometimes I have to remind myself that it is not my will, but God's to be done.
Sometimes I have to remind myself that I am not the savior-- Jesus is.


I've seen and been badly burned by some people who have felt the need to play "God" with my life. Maybe it begins with genuine care and concern, or with good intentions, but after time, it becomes an idol and an addiction that we feel we cannot and SHOULD NOT let go of... because after all, the Bible calls us to help others right?


We should learn and be constantly reminding ourselves of our places. We are called to help others, but we are not designated as God or as THE Savior. But in the end, there is a fine line.


Dear God,
Not my will, but let YOURS be done.
