John 15:7 and Psalms 119:9

How many times do we focus on our selves to the extent of disregarding others? I would be afraid of an honest answer from anyone about this question.

If this is true then our self focus is probably not reflecting what God wants and will affect answers to our prayers. Our focus should be on Jesus. When it is, we will find that we do consider others. The Apostle John says (in John 15:7) “by this shall all men know you are my disciples because you have love one to another.” How do we do this? Psalms 119:9 says “by taking heed to the word of God.”

Christ will help us do that if we let Him and ask Him in prayer.

Father, help us to obey the word of God and help us show your love to others. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
