This scripture has been playing in my mind recently and I thought I'd share,
"Instead, take the lowest place at the foot of the table.
Then when your host sees you, he will come and say,
'Friend, we have a better place for you!'
Then you will be honored in front of all the other guests."
-Luke 14:10
So many times in life we look around us and think,
"I can do this or that better than so and so. Why do they get all the credit and recognition?"
It can be hard to take the lowly place, but when we wait on God to exalt us instead of exalting ourselves, the reward is beyond our imagination.
Let's be okay waiting.
Excellent words of motivation. I've just come across your blog and it's nice to meet another sis in Christ : ) Check out my new Christian blog http://teamjesusuk.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThis is really excellent advice and so true to be okay waiting which seems like something that people don't do anymore. :)
