Serve in Selfishness

I am selfish, God knows it, I know it, you know it. I pray I wasn't. But I am. To ignore it is ignorance. To except it is wisdom. Only when I recognize and ackknowledge it can I address it. I suspect that selfishness is one of the sins that kept my lord on the cross. It surely was the reason they put him there. I also suspect that there are many today that are SERVING my lord out of selfishness. But is this so wrong? We ALL have and are and will be sinners. God knows that we are sinners and selfishness runs deep. It's not new news to him. However we ourselves deny it's ever being a true hold.
To be Rightous I must not be selfish. But yet I am and I am.

I pray dear lord use me in spite of my selfish nature. Take the verry nature I ignore yet am. I give to you my SELFisness. Use it to serve your purpose. Be creative in Me and My.
