It's not my life.
The Bible is full of verses that explain that I have been bought by God; my life isn't mine. I am dead in Christ, but I am also alive in Him.
I think I have "rights" - seriously, I don't want to be kind and forgiving! Can't I just be mad? Can't I just be selfish for a little while?
I even start thinking that my life "sucks."
But it's not about me! It's about God! My life is not my own. So if my day gets ruined, so to speak, I have to learn to live *beyond* that. I have to give my whole life for Him and to Him.
"He who saves his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake, will find it." (paraphrased...)
