This is taken from phil pringle's blog! It's about living a life serving others, and most importantly, God :D

“Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other.” Gen 13:11

The most boring & empty life is when you live for yourself. Biggest mistake Lot ever made was to chose for himself.
Abraham had given Lot 1st choice. He should have told Abraham he would go wherever he told him. Living for God means I eat, breathe, sleep, rest, work, think, study, train, plan & dream…. for Him, not for me.
Living for God will disadvantage me at times, many times, but that’s where real life is discovered, in sacrifice for another.
Lot should have chosen for Abraham and made sure he got the best land instead of choosing it for himself. After he separated from Abraham (his source of blessing) Lot spiralled downhill. Also, as soon as Lot left, God gave Abraham the vision of the Promised Land.
Our vision can be limited or expanded by the assosciations in our lives!
