My lesson in humility happened a few weeks ago when my husband stole my thunder at my BNI meeting. He got applause and everything! I was actually glad and pleased that he did get attention. It's good for him to be interacting and performing!
My second lesson came when I was not recognized for coming in third on the traffic light report! That was really hard, but I'm working on it and praying about it! So I was really in a mood dealing with Ronnie at Body Strong, but I pulled myself together.
Ron was having a hard time with his right leg because he hasn't exercised in a week due to a frozen pipe at the community center which put the weight room out of commission. Ron and his wife have since moved to N. Carolina. It was sad to see him go because we have worked together for six years, but I'm happy for them and it will be a nice place to visit in the winter next year.
My third lesson came from Mel at Epoch. He is a diabetic and lost half of his leg. He told me his grandson of only seventeen years, has cancer. His name is Trey and will be on my prayer list and hopefully many others.
So during this season of Lent, I'm learning to be humble and give more to others in prayer, works, and alms.
