So.... the topic of the day is HUMILITY...
I have been reflecting on this for a couple of days now.
It is such a beautiful attribute... ( and I'm going to be sexist here LOL )
especially when you see it in a man. @amadeus

@Addy I love the humility passage - "humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross" in Philippians 2.

Humility, in my understanding, is seeing myself truthfully...I am what I am, and I'm not what I'm not, the good, the bad, and the ugly!

To me... from what you have written... you are describing ACCEPTANCE of yourself... and the HONEST AWARENESS of yourself ( faults and strengths ). KNOW THYSELF... another very important attribute to have... with this comes wisdom.
Not arguing with you... LOL... that is how I see what you have described. There are no right answers in Dear Addy's place... only sharings of the heart... UNLESS it comes down to deciding WHO is the funniest.... then I might pull RANK... hahahah

I'm getting ready for the winter.... I am repeating old puzzles to practice up for the new ones I got which are all 1000 pieces... I like to
start with the 500 piece ones first.

I need some puzzles

You can do puzzles on-line too... Not sure if you would enjoy that... It's actually how I got started...
I did a few on-line... got hooked to the click sound it makes when the pieces fit... and the rest is
history.... I started them last winter.

@Truman ... you said this on another thread... I can't post there so I transferred it here.
For me, revival begins when I humble myself before the Lord and ask Him to show me my sin.
This is a DIVINE TRUTH....

WE need to talk about your avatar... LOL... OK... so... here's the thing... I see a deer with bulgy eyes.... It's an optical type illusion... the eagle is looking down at the snake... BUT... it depends on how the eyes focus... I see a deer with bulgy eyes...and I really have to focus to see the eagle.
Just thought you would like to know this dilemma I am going through... LOL

I guess today is get the darn puzzle done today day... I will be done in about 15 minutes.

Not really gabby today... I think that is because I talked my face off yesterday... giving my lips and fingers a rest...
I sometimes talk out loud when I am typing... LOL

Sadly my niece is absolutely turned off of God... due to legalistic introduction by her family... I have been trying to repair the damage that my family has done... but she doesn't give God much thought... so her suffering is magnified severely. I am in deep prayer for her... as I know MY GOD can work all kinds of miracles in the lives of the broken. I have not yet seen her since this has occurred... I live in the same city... but I do not drive... She is supposed to be coming to pick me up tomorrow... and bring me back to her house. There is nothing I can say or do at this time...all I can do is weep with her... and hold her heart next to mine.
Praying for you and your family!
