I Always Choose The Best!

I always choose the best for myself. You select things that you want to have very carefully when offered a choice. Notice how you go round the buffet table to take those things in your plate that you like the most. You avoid those things that you don’t like at all.
In your life also you do the same. You select the good lookers in the bar or at airports you don’t pick up someone’s folded newspaper but pick up the one which look fresh. Similarly, we do the selection of veggies or garments that look good to our eyes and feel fresh.
This is the type of life you have been brought up with since you were born. Notice the baby doing the selection of the best toy or food with good looks. Even your ice cream toppings are the best.
But what happens to you when you have to gift someone else? If it’s your girlfriend then you will choose the best but if it is for someone whom you don’t know, then you will do all sorts of compromises and select relatively good one.
Our likes and dislikes span our entire life. We even select the kind of death we want or the coffin we want. Does it really matter after you are dead? No! Yet, we want to be in control even after going away. We exercise choices every given minute.
So why don’t we exercise the same choice when we do prayers to God? We go and beg from Him about every other thing but to put a few notes or coins in the collection box is painful. It does not mean that God is going to take those coins or notes but you will feel good after doing that. Isn’t that why you select stuff or go to such lengths to satisfy your self fully? So here we are talking about your own self and not somebody else.
If you consider God as your own then you will go to whatever lengths to get the best for Him but if you think He is just someone you have to give something then you will do enough compromises in selection. Even the money you will put in the collection box will be defective notes and coins.
So consider God as your own good self and be nice to Him. Just the way you would pamper yourself, do the same to Him. Know that you are doing it to your own being and self.
That’s why the phrase- do unto others what you do unto you. Or another catch phrase which says- charity begins at home.
So start doing things for yourself or others the same way without partiality. When you see God in everyone then you will be impartial.
