Welcome to Day 1987 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
Be Concerned for Others – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on
trek.com/wisdom-trek-podcast/day-1987">Day 1987 of our
trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.
Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase wisdom and create a living legacy.
Proverbs 16:16 says,
"How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver!" If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.
Today’s quote is from Martin Luther King, Jr., and it is,
“An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.”
Be Concerned for Others
All of us tend to be self-consumed. We may not admit it, but in many ways, most of us act as if we are at the center of the universe. We become so self-absorbed that we fail to be concerned for others as we should be. Let us rise above our small individual worlds and show a broader concern for all humanity, starting with our family and close friends.
God does not expect us to impact the world with His kingdom individually, but He does expect us to impact our world with His kingdom. If each of us, as Christ-followers, moves beyond self and focuses on the concerns and needs of others we influence, we will see the world change and God’s kingdom come to earth as it is in heaven. Let us change our small world so we can change the world as a whole.

Philippians 2:1-4
Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.
As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of our
Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
