My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Leslie Koh  … USE THIS LINK    related a true story of the ODB author attending a large corporate event where all the employees, from the CEO to the janitors, were given roles to play; and during the event someone spilled a drink.  And quickly one of the company  bosses picked up a mop and took care of cleaning the spill. And this act of humility raised the perception of the boss by the rest of the employees.

And if my readers have taken in today’s ODB entry, the linked song, and the Scriptures shared above, I hope we all are asking ourselves whether we are choosing to humble ourselves like Jesus would call us to live.   Personally, I’m convicted to do more to humble myself to help others in my life.  How about you?

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank you for giving me the strength to humble myself as You have called me to live.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, … for lifting all Your children up to be humble like You.   …  Amen
