The Trojan Horse
From the "Heavenly Mind" chapter of my manuscript:
Peter reminds Christians to help out only if their mind is willing, not by feeling obligated to do so (1 Peter 5:2). Have you ever noticed that "people-pleasing" can lead to bitterness and resentment? A free will offering is always preferable to a grudging gift. What looks like a grand gift (Trojan Horse) may spill out discord and drama from its unrighteous intentions. May I offer my life today as a gift to my Creator. Living life this way may not always please other people, as Jesus well knew.
