I hope you all are doing well! The flu has been going around in our family, and I am just praying that I will not get it. It's no fun being sick!
On a side note, I am enjoying these rainy days. Rainy days are perfect for drinking a cup of tea, reading a book{I have been reading More than a Carpenter, 1,000 gifts, and Rebekah's Diary},working on a sewing project, or dancing in the rain{of course!}.
I have really enjoy reading Rebekah's Diary today...by Rebekah Pearl. I know the Lord has a very special plan for each and every one of us...some are big jobs, some are small, but they are all important. Little is much when God is in it!
"He must increase, but I must decrease. {John 3:30}
In order for the Lord to use us, we have to be humble. Oh, being humble is such a hard thing sometimes {just as a friend mentioned on her
blog today}. When we focus on humility, and look inward to see if we are sufficiently humble, we become proud, and focused on our self. When we are thanking the Lord for the things that He gives us, and we truly understand that we are weak, and unworthy, but that He has blessed us with life itself, then we become humble.
Please, Lord, cultivate in my a humble heart. I want YOU, and you alone to be lifted up, exalted, honored, and glorified.
With all my heart, I want to live for you.
