Today's Inspiration: "Give Yourself" --- Jesus
If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whosoever lose his life for me will save it.....   Luke 9:23-24
While Socrates became famous for his dictum, "Know thyself," Jesus Christ lived the admonition, "Give Thyself." There is a great difference between knowing yourself and giving yourself.
Knowledge of self is important, but often we aren't happy once we get to know ourselves. Instead, Christ said, "Give Thyself!" In giving, we receive, and in dying we live. Jesus said, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whosoever loses his life for me will save it".
The beautiful thing about giving yourself, first to God then to others, is that your old self will change. Paul described it as becoming "a new person." Yes, it is important to know yourself --- your weaknesses, failures, and sins. But once you know that, do something about it. Give yourself and become the person God wants you to be.

Today's Stars
Because you will soon face a big decision, you may be learning all you think there is to learn about what your options are. You may be grilling other people for their opinions. You may be researching what other people have done in your position. But there is such a thing as too much information, Taurus. If you go into this choice so filled with opinions and knowledge, you might miss something simple but important, or you might miss something you could not have seen otherwise. Leave a little room for doubt.
Sometimes, be doubtful!
