Psalm 119:36
Turn my heart toward your statutes and not toward selfish gain.
This verse makes me think of Brother Lawrence. He spent much of his life essentially training himself to think of God continually. His heart and his mind were always with God. This, of course, led to an awesome relationship. And I imagine this did not leave much space in BL's head for selfish gain. With God on our mind, how can we be selfish or stingy?
Lord God, help me to feel the presence of your Holy Spirit within me. Help me to make compassionate, gracious decisions. Amen
