"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should not look out for your own interests, but also for the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as Christ Jesus: Who, being in the very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death even death on a cross!" (Philippians 2:3-8)
Whew, I always feel terribly convicted whenever I come across this passage. It takes away all of my "but I's". But I am wasting my college degree. But I am just not getting my "me" time. But I am tired. But I worked hard all morning and I deserve for these kids to take naps! Etc., etc. All of these were running through my head as I was reading some of the passages in this book.
I recommend "Passionate Housewives...." But, as always, remember there is only one Bible.
