By living and working honestly, and serving God. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Relationships/Escaping-the-Me-Monster-4175 2008-08-14T16:28:43-05:00 The "me" monster. That's the tendency to think about myself most of the time, and it's the main reason Pam was down so much of the time, and maybe you are. There's nothing like hurt and pain and pressure to turn us into self-focused people. Too often, life is about my needs, my issues, my problems, my agenda, my feelings, my load. But a life of self-focus or self-pity or self-centeredness is just not how we were wired to live, especially if we belong to Jesus Christ. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Hard-Times/A-Gerbil-On-A-Wheel-4065 2008-08-01T15:54:18-05:00 I know more and more people who are tired of the "gerbil wheel" of status quo living. It's not that the wheel is bad - it just isn't satisfying.
