Forget Yourself

"Self-forgetfulness in the presence of greatness is the capstone of joy." - J. Piper


Many times, the view we have is only extended to the end of our nose. We are so self-absorbed and self-concerned. all. the. time.
When was the last time you forgot yourself entirely? Not out of a lack of concern for yourself but because you allowed something to be greater than yourself.
Because trust me, there are a lot of things in this world that are greater than you.
Do me a favor and set aside 45min of your time to experience just a glimpse of what I'm talking about here.

I hope that sometime this week, you find yourself full of joy, not because of who you are, but because of something much greater than you are.
