As I end this day I was thinking about what I learned today. A few things came to mind. First a word rang true again for me to continue to pay attention to. PRIDE - It comes in sooo many different ways. Sometimes someone can share an insight and it can convict me of something that I need to deal with. Funny how God works. Isn't pride a hard one to swallow - what I mean is, isn't it a hard one to admit that we might even possibly have an issue with? Maybe it's pride about your children, or pride toward other christians, or pride over posessions...etc. When you really look hard at the root of attitudes, pride seems to find it's way in. Yuk...I really dislike it and with the Lord's help will continue to face it head on.
Most importantly, I want the Lord to change my attitudes from the inside. I want him to clean out from inside what can cause pride to come out. He has revealed so much already and I feel like he has taken so much out, but there is still more work to be done.
So what should I seek? Humility. Listen to the following clip.
I have been married to Tim for 27 years. He is an amazing man of God! I have 4 daughters, Nicole, Denise, Emily and Angela. The older 3 are married to Eric, Mike and Jon. I have two grandsons, Zechariah and Matthew and 1 grandaughter, Emily Jane. Christ's love, forgiveness and his grace are ever present with me in this earthly journey and it is in him where I find peace.
