There is an unknown battle in living life. The battle is not physical; it's a spiritual fight that is centered in one's mind. The battle is "self-preservation" vs. "self-centeredness." They fight against one another each minute of each day of your life.
Self-preservation is a gift from God that protects us from the world. It's the act of protecting us from self-harm and destruction. It's a natural instinct. Self-centeredness is stubbornness and willfulness-adhering only to one's own desires or ideas.
Self-preservation allows us to look at life with an open mind and care about what's going on at all times.
Self-centeredness allows us to do anything to get what we want without caring about anyone else.
We need His help to fight this battle, for we cannot win it alone. And we may fight for many years and lose many battles, but at the end of the day, with His help, life will be much better.
