Never feel self-pity, the most destructive emotion there is. How awful to be caught up in the terrible squirrel cage of self.<\/p>\n
Millicent Fenwick<\/i><\/p>\n
Self pity comes when you lose the intimacy with Jesus.<\/p>\n

Self-Pleasing<\/b><\/p>\n
1. God\u2019s glory must be the ultimate end.<\/p>\n
2. The matter must be lawful and not forbidden.<\/p>\n
3. Therefore it must not be to the hindrance of duty.<\/p>\n
4. Nor to the drawing of us to sin.<\/p>\n
5. Nor to the hurt of our health.<\/p>\n
6. Nor too highly valued, nor too dearly bought.<\/p>\n
7. The measure must be moderate rate. Where any of these are wanting, it is sin: and where flesh-pleasing is habitually in the bent of heart and life preferred before the pleasing of God, it proves the soul in captivity to the flesh, and in a damnable condition.<\/p>\n
