Class is always in session


Two important reminders/lessons I've learned this weekend:

1. When you're aware and grateful for the sovereignty of God, none of life's happenings feel mundane. It's a remedy for pride and entitlement. If He is sovereign, nothing happens on accident.

2. Putting another persons interest before yours is easy when it pertains to a thing that doesn't mean much to you. It's when you face the choice of surrendering one of your REAL interests for the sake of another that your heart is tested and, in some cases, you get to experience gladness in doing it. It's an amazing evidence of the Spirits gradual work of sanctification in the heart.
