Yes, another post about this. Just wanted to remind myself that a thousand years for God is like a day, or 3-4 hours according to Psalm 90, take a read. That means our lives last as long as the snap of the fingers.
If you believe that, then nothing, and I mean nothing, revolves around you. If you are thinking "what's in it for me?", you need to remember that we all live similar lives and in the end, we all die. We cannot escape it.
"What's in it for me?" Nope. "What is it all for?" Look inside and consider what your relationship with God is like. I promise if you can get that straightened out, your life will improve. It won't be easy, and there will be plenty of down times, but you will find a happiness that you didn't think you could find.
True happiness is understanding that you are not the center of the universe but that there is something that is.
