Week 3: Humility

So I look back on my week: week 3, and it's amazing to see how these daily devotionals are demonstrated in my life. We were reading Job in my religion class and we had to read a few supplementary articles with conflicting views etc. Anyways one of them was about the fierce and indifferent landscapes. It really spoke to me, it mentioned how we are so trained to be selfish in consumed in our everyday issues. God's creation is so unbelievably majestic that when we encounter it, we are drawn out of ourselves and immediately consumed with awe for His creation and power. I really needed to hear that- I went for a walk around town and just appreciated the beauty of what I saw because I need to realize that my "issues" my everyday stressers are not the focus of the world, I am a part of something bigger and greater. So I need to encounter God's creation as just that- HIS creation- something that doesn't revolve around me and won't be dependent on me. I need to be pulled out of myself and let God overwhelm me- let me show me what he has been dying to show me. What is more humbling than knowing we are so little? And taking this lesson and applying it to leadership is so encouraging. "To crave abundance is to crave Jesus. To crave Jesus is to serve like Jesus." I mean wow, I want that...so badly, So God, please take me out of myself and into your embrace because only then can I learn to serve humbly, only then can I appreciate your majesty fully, God let us be encourage eachother each day to be humble. "May I never boast except in the cross of your Lord Jesus Christ"

- Week 3 was a great week, and I can't wait to see how God moves me this week.
