Not the noblest...

"God does not necessarily select the noblest or most deserving person to carry out divine purposes."
But each to fulfill the purpose to which we are called...and to realize the humility and hope that allows each to be true self before God and others.

  1. In Zephania's exhortation this morning, he urges Israel to be "humble and lowly". I believe that at times, when our mind and spirit are so full of....cluttered even...with ideas and plans, we can't simply see nor plainly and clearly the sacred. It is the humble and the lowly who has time and makes time to say "yes!" as Mary did.
    Have a purposeful day, simply.

  2. Wow what a true and beautiful reflection. I did a meditation this morning and just read Becky's comments and have often had similar thoughts, specifically that if I simplified life perhaps I would have more time for saying YES with JOY.
