Saving yourself seems to be the thing to do!

Message: The gospel according to Luke       Text: Luke 23:32-38  

Look at vs 36, then Luke 1:31-33  

Father forgive…they don’t see what they’re doing.   1) an example for us     2) a reminder to us                                                                                                             “All sin is a form of insanity.”  

Saving yourself seems to be the thing to do!            

Philippians 2:5-8                                                                 

You’re not happy because you’re trying to be happy. Stop trying to make yourself happy and start trying to make someone else happy…and you will be happy.  

Happiness is sneaky and slippery; hard to find and harder to hang onto when found.  

 

Mother Teresa, "Love demands sacrifice.  But if we love until it hurts, God will give us His peace and joy…Suffering in itself is nothing; but suffering shared with Christ's Passion is a wonderful gift."  (CBS correspondent Dan Rather interviewed Mother Teresa and commented that she was the happiest person he had ever met…and couldn’t figure out why.)
