One of the most freeing experiences for me is to help another person.
It frees me from the burden of self and puts perspective onto my self-centered perceptions of my challenges and problems.
Now maybe it’s different for you, but when I can place my focus on helping another, my heart gets filled with not only a refreshing humility from the service, but also, I gain a fresh perspective when I revisit my issue or challenge and it no longer appears to be such a problem, but a manageable challenge.
This is how the Holy Spirit works in us and among us.
Give it a try next time you feel your chips are down.
Reach out and help someone and see how your day changes! …
