Difficult situations have a way of revealing the heart. You can’t control what everybody else does, but you can control yourself. When bad things happen, are you going to fall apart, or are you going to stand up straight, cast your cares upon Jesus, and look for others who might need your help?

What’s the difference? That’s the question Andrew answers in his teaching Self-Centeredness: The Source of All Grief.

It’s time to learn how to find your contentment in the Lord. Many of our disasters are self-induced. We would not be so easily hurt if self was not so intact. We can't stop all problems, but we can die to self.
