Sunday Thoughts: Humility

C.S. Lewis has always been one of my favorites and I love when he is quoted. I love this quote because we live in a selfish time, people think that they 'deserve' a certain lifestyle, certain things, and can have a certain attitude. All of us have so much and probably more than the world around us. Are we putting ourselves and our selfish attitude first? We need to make sure we think about others around us, we will be so much happier if we are thinking about our families, about people at work or school, or those we might not know but are willing to serve.
We will find so much happiness in our lives once we put our prideful self away and put others first.

  1. Hi Elise! My husband and I love reading C.S. Lewis books. One particular one we enjoy is Mere Christianity. Great to know you enjoy him as an author too!

  2. I love this. Such a great reminder. I love a woman named Joyce Meyer and she is often talking about how if we really want something then go out and give it. (i.e. stop focusing on what you don't have and go out and give what you want. If you want money, go out and bless someone else. If you want friends, go out and be a friend to someone else.)
