what rights can I give up today?

it seems to me that in order to be more Christ-like, there is a recurring theme of "giving up your rights" along the way. It was something that Oswald Chambers enjoyed talking about very much. "If you are living the life of faith you will exercise your right to waive your rights, and let God choose for you.", " every time I insist upon my rights, I hurt the Son of God;", or "the stamp of the saint is that he can waive his own rights and obey the Lord Jesus."
Jesus mentioned it again and again when giving us instructions on how to live, just read the sermon on the mount. He tells us to turn the other cheek, to walk to miles when we are compelled to walk one. Paul implies this same idea when he tells us to look out for the welfare of others before our own.
As with a lot of things in life, looking out for and taking care of ourselves is not a bad thing, it's not wrong to stand up for yourself if someone is trying to take advantage of you. But, if you really want to follow Christ and become like him, the standard is raised, more is expected. It's filling up and emptying the dishwasher when it is perfectly reasonable to ask my husband to do it, because I've done it the last 3 times. It's not holding someone responsible when they hurt me, and especially not holding a pity party. It's choosing to obey Christ over your feelings, or even what you've been taught to believe all your life. Every time I think about giving up my rights, there's just something in my head that screams "BUT WHO'S GOING TO WATCH OUT FOR YOU? WHO'S TAKING CARE OF YOUR NEEDS??" Oftentimes, I side with the voice in my head, I stick up for myself, explain myself, defend myself, whatever "needs" to be done. And then afterwards there's the quiet voice that asks "why can't I trust God to care for me, to watch out for me?"
For me, that's where it all comes down - do I trust God to be watching out for my best interests? Not just what I think should be important, but what truly is? If so, then I can let go of my rights freely, and I grasp a little more what it means to glorify God with my life.
