The Most Difficult Lie

From "Blue Like Jazz," by Donald Miller:

"The most difficult lie I have ever contended with is this: Life is a story about me."

True, no? It's true of me, anyway. Most of my consternation with people and situations stems from the fact that someone has decided that I'm not the star of the show. And whatever their motivation might be, the truth is I'm NOT. My life, my breath, my world, is dedicated to God, to His glory. Or it should be.

Good. Our generation needs to hear that it ain't "all about me".
