Today I was grateful for humble pie. I had to eat some and in all honesty it's good for the soul to eat a little humble pie every now and then. I'm grateful for it because it keeps any inflated ego I have in check. It keeps me from thinking I have "arrived" or that I am so spectacular that others are beneath me in some way. It's even better when I can laugh while partaking of the humble pie. And the things that bring us humility don't have to be big, they can be as small and seemingly insignificant as totally destroying a cake, when normally baking is something that *you* rock at! Have you eaten any humble pie lately? Did it occur to you to be grateful for it?
Here's the visual of my humble pie:
My humble pie is always during worship when I start thinking about how much I love singing, but I am not really thinking about God and what I am saying and then I totally hit the wrong key. That is when I realize that what I am doing isn't about me. It's about the one I am singing about.
