There is so much on my mind right now. It has been quite a week, I must say. As I sit here and type this (while listening to the new Mat Kearney CD; thanks "Mr. Disheveled"!) I am exhausted, hot (dang Mobile heat) and completely humbled.....
I have experienced a series of occurrences this week that have reminded me of how much I am not in control of anything; people, places or circumstances. They were simple situations wrapped in a greater message that, after a bit of reflection, I knew God had used to show me the beauty of humility. Earlier this week, I met a good friend to catch up on life and all that jazz. Over coffee and a chai latte we discussed what was new in our lives, and anything we needed specific prayer for. I asked that she pray for me about humilty. I've been struggling with it, and recently I have started to take notice on how my lack of humitlity in certain areas has affected my attitude and my daily walk. In short, God has been very faithful to humble in the areas where it was in need. I was not having the best day today and on my drive home, God, once again, reminded me of His grace, mercy, provision and timing. Quite humbling.
Some of what I'm referring to is in reference to my previous blog. It really is such a joy to find joy in other people's joy. It is a wonderful thing, a humbling thing and such a pure way to make a person feel special....
P.S. For your listening pleasure, I have included one of my favorite songs off of Mat Kearney's new album. I really love songs that tell stories.. and this one certainly does!
