Write the Story for Jesus’ Sake

It’s tempting to write the story so it makes me look good.
But I’m not writing it for my sake.

These words, among the thousands of words Augustine wrote, 
direct us to live out our lives for Jesus’ sake and God’s glory.
In his “Confessions of Augustine,” the story of his conversion
to Christianity, Augustine explained the dramatic change from
living for himself to living for God. It’s a worthy goal for us all.

May we all humble ourselves and exalt Thee.
