Three words that can be the worse words ever created, or the best words ever used depending on the context they are used. These three words can be worse than the harshest profanities that exist. These three words are “I, Me, and You.” You ask, how can these three words be so bad or evil intentioned? The simple answer is due to the fact we are living in an evil, selfish generation. I, Me, and You can be used to display humbleness, meekness, and humility, but most often used for prideful thoughts, selfish desires, and deceitful acts.

We are constantly thinking about ourselves and what we want. When we pray to God, we ask over and over again give me this house, give me this mate, give me this job, give me, me,me. We ask for all of this because our self-centeredness makes us believe the universe revolves around us and for God’s glory to be revealed to the world, it must be through our selfishness.

However, God knows our heart. Those who ask for all earthly possessions will not receive it from God because He knows once we have it, we will want more. Before we even thank Him for what we do have, we plan our next wants and desires.

We see ourselves as perfect, but He sees us as a beautiful mess. He wants to fix our mess so desperately, but our arrogance and pride hinders that from happening.

However, our eyes are wide open to see what is going on in the lives of others. We are very foolish. We gossip about other people, putting them down in the presence of others but laughing with them to their face. Gossip hurts three people; the two talking about a person, and the person who is being talked about.

Yet, we call ourselves Christians, but is it not in the Spirit of Christ to take aside a person, have a loving conversation to explain to them what is going on? We constantly look for someone to blame when we are to be blamed.

Just recently someone asked if I knew the number to INS. In case you are unaware, INS is the branch of the government who deports “illegal” residents from the land of the “free.” I replied that I did not have it and inquired why it was needed. To my dismay, they wanted to deport a person because a friend left his/her child with the person in question. She did not do a good job watching the child and the parent of the child wanted to have this lady deported.

I rebuked the thought and let it be known that I cannot take part in condemning anyone. It is not what I was commanded to do by my Lord Jesus Christ. However, I did ask how people can entrust their children with just anyone because it is free. Nonetheless, I was cast away for my heart being in the place of finding a resolution through the name of Jesus and not through man’s own understanding.

In another situation, a person sent out a message that can be hurtful to a certain group of people. I asked them, as a Christian, is that message the best way to address the situation by putting down and quite possibly humiliating them. I was informed they are entitled to their own thoughts and opinions.

However, Christians, if you believe this you do not fully believe, understand, and trust the Lord Jesus Christ. We by no means are entitled to our own opinions. Remember, we surrendered ALL to Christ Jesus, so that His Holy Spirit could fill us, overwhelm us and it be His thoughts and opinions that fill our mind. We laid our thoughts and opinions at the feet of the cross and left it there and left with Him, our new life, a life more abundantly. That is what allows us to be called a Christian. We take CHRIST as our LORD and SAVIOR. We sometimes think because we pray or read our bible that makes us a Christian or closer to God, but my beloved, Atheist, Muslims, and even the devil read the Bible, and because we are constantly in petty dispute within our faith, we hinder the wonderful works of the Holy Spirit, and it allows the enemies of God to use scripture against us.

These three words however have the capability of being the most beautiful words ever used. When we are filled with love, peace, and joy from the Holy Spirit of God, He allows us to genuinely say “I love you.” We also find ourselves saying “Use me Lord to carry out Your will,” or “How can I serve you?”

These are the most beautiful combinations of these three words that can be used against the evil and depravity these words are currently being associated with. However, the greatest of all, which makes the most life changing experience and opened the door to Selfless Faith, is “I surrender ALL to you Jesus, my LORD and SAVIOR.”
