‭‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭10‬ ‭NIV‬‬ — Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

This week, I have been sharing Christmas in July. I love that around the Christmas season, Deborah, Ray, and I select our words for the year. I want to revisit my word for 2025: Humble. Although I feel I am a humble person, as I grow in our ministry and my service, I want to bring glory to God. James instructs that God will lift us. We don’t need to do the heavy lifting. We can choose to take up our cross and humbly come before God.

Like broken seashells crashing within the waves onto the shoreline, I will stumble. Through my brokenness, I want to be a blessing to others. Through my humility I desire to bring Glory to God. 

Did you select a word or mantra for the year? Deborah recently had us do a mid-year review. I pray we can all finish out the second half of the year strong. Let’s humbly walk with God and share His most precious gift.

Let’s pray. Dear God, thank You for using me through my brokenness. I humbly come before You and ask that You use me to be a blessing to others. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
