I know how to get by well on my own, or rather with God.

It is good to be selfless and serve others, I know, for I promised my love: obedience to God and service unto others. Still, there is a sinking feeling in my heart that makes me wonder if it is wrong to cater to my humanity, is it wrong to think of self, to concern of one’s own needs? The best example I can think of is Christ, did he think of his needs when he fulfilled the will of the Father for him as he served humanity selflessly till even death upon the cross? No. I have not to worry about my needs, whether they be emotional, physical or spiritual. I do not have to fret as to where I will rest my head the next day or whether that place will be home. As He cares for the sparrow, how much more will he care for me. He numbers the hairs on my head and conceived me in my mother’s womb, he knows my needs, is able and willing. My God will love me; though I love till my heart cries for mercy and my mind of melancholy, he will refresh me with living water and I will continue to obey His will for me and serve.
