Self less

Hello my wonderful followers. 
Today I learned to be self less instead of selfish. I've never been a selfish person at all. I've always been pretty much self less. Any one who knows me will know this. Lol I love my family and love my sister but sometimes she only cares about herself. Like today at lunch I was joking and said oh will you pay for mine? And she was like no you have your own money. I was like wow thanks. I told my mom this and she said she will pay me back what I spent. Lol and then we got home and my mom who was up all night taking care of my sick brother and dad wanted to take a nap. My sister on the other hand wanted to go to the mall.  I was like wow. Really. I told my mom I would stay home so she could rest. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, (Philippians 2:3 NIV) in the Bible it talks strongly against being selfish. God wants us all to be humble and not selfish. He wasn't selfish when creating you and sending Jesus to die for us. If we love people which we should then we should love them enough to put away our selfish desires to help other people! Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. (Matthew 5:42 NIV) Check out this promise God tells us in  His word:God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. (Hebrews 6:10 NIV) 
I think that verse sums it all up. 
Be self less today! Be humble. :)
