Thought Adjuster: “Jesus illustrated true "self-forgetfulness" when, after hearing someone call him "good teacher," he asked, "Why do you call me good?" Clearly, Jesus knew he was sinless, and his question was not meant to show false modesty. Jesus never hesitated to affirm his divine origin and use his life as a living example for salvation. However, what he did was not a way for Jesus to draw attention to himself. He lived to do the will of the Father, and naturally, when someone attempted to highlight his goodness, Jesus was quick to clarify that goodness comes from the Father and that when children follow in their heavenly Father's footsteps, they simply express the nature of God. The goodness in Jesus did not originate from himself but from his desire to live as the Father had taught him. All goodness comes from God.

What a stark contrast with many in this world who call themselves "good" while placing heavy burdens on the shoulders of their fellow beings! When a human approaches the perfection of being, they can identify the source of that perfection and understand that through their decisions and actions, they are expressing the nature of their Creator. While this is a glorious endeavor that forever ennobles the personality and makes it eternal, what right does man have to claim for himself the things that belong to the Father?

As you seek to live according to God's will, strive to become so transparent that the Father's light shines through your being without any shadow. The ego, the desire for recognition, and the pursuit of rewards are obstacles that prevent the full manifestation of divine goodness and beauty. Have the courage to leave behind your expectations and your desire to exalt yourself so that you may discover the glory of being a reflection of the heavenly Father to your fellow beings. This is the most noble and elevated purpose of human life.

It is in the purity of intention that personality can become charming and attractive. This is how the lives of ordinary human beings can become inspiring, leading others to seek the fruits of the spirit and attain eternal life. When your intention contains "hidden agendas" and you perform good deeds with an eye toward obtaining something for your own benefit, the quality of the goodness you can express diminishes. It is a fact that those who have learned to walk the Father's path will enjoy eternal rewards and discover the wonders of the universe. This will be your eternal reward, the product of your efforts to become better and better. However, the desire for rewards is an obstacle to human goodness and weakens the best efforts when the results of that goodness cannot be observed.

Blessed is the one who gives without expecting to receive, for this person will offer the greatest service to creation, even when appearances make their efforts seem futile. The limited material vision will rarely be able to comprehend the complete picture of reality, but through faith, you can transcend your limitations and live in such a way that the Father can express Himself through your being more effectively, without being subject to the limitations of your expectations and what you think you know. This was the great strength of Jesus' life. Even when he could not see the outcome of his expressions of unconditional love—while living as an ordinary man—he never doubted that where his efforts ended, his heavenly Father's influence began, echoing his love and creating a reality that was increasingly perfect and better.”
