Here are my thoughts on self-pity that I would like to share:


  • I need to be on guard against self-pity.
  • I need to realize that it is much harder to get out of having self-pity when dealing with it than keeping a safe distance from it.
  • Here are the ways to protect oneself from self-pity:
    • Be occupied with praising and thanking God.
    • Need to live closer to God.
    • Fixing our eyes on Jesus, which leads to living in the Light of God's Presence.

The end result would be running with endurance, the race set before us without stumbling or falling.

Genuine question, have you managed to achieve it yet and if so how.

Just wondered as I think we all justifiably fall into self pity from time to time.

Many on here have been, or are going through extremely difficult life affecting times.
