How I want to live my life

Based on the great commandment - here is how I want to live my life.

“Jesus, please help me to live in your love today and express that love toward everyone I meet.
Let your love be reflected in every thought, attitude, decision, action and conversation today.”

I'm not there yet - but I'm headed in the right direction.

My filter for how I do life

I need to take what is good - deliberate with a small group of smart people I have significant relationship with - and make what is good - better and better.

Walking in humility

We are to walk in humility; what does that mean?

1. We are dearly loved by God. He created us - He loves us - our life is in His hands - our life is on a heavenly time table. Wow!

2. We are finite - very limited human beings - dependent upon Him to be all we can be.

In other words: I am special beyond my imagination; and I have limitations beyond my comprehension.

The appropriate balance between those two truths keeps us from pride, on the one hand, or insecurity on the other - humility.
