Paradox of Privelege

I know I just posted, but I read this article my mom sent me, and it is so good, it deserved a second blog.  Check it out!  Just click on the title of the blog to be connected to the link.

My favorite line is: "The paradox of privilege is that it is meaningless when it only serves the self, when it thinks it has nothing to learn from anyone else."

Isn't that poignant?  There is nothing wrong with privilege as long as it seeks to serve and learn from others.  But the moment we make it about us, we have lost the gift that God has given us.

There's a myriad of good wisdom in this article.  I strongly suggest you check it out!  Thanks Mom!
