Not my will but yours be done

Jesus is certainly the greatest example on the earth of anyone that even comes close to fulfilling God's will on the earth as it is in heaven.  In preparing Sunday's lesson for the church in Belgrade and Moscow on this topic, a stark contrast between Jesus' heart and mine was revealed to me.

Jesus' mindset: "I have come to do the Father's will so that it might be better for others."
My mindset: "I want you to do my will, Father, so it will be better for me."

Forgive me, Father, for my self-centered way of thinking.  Please make me more like Jesus.
