"True humility is when a person realizes they don’t need to talk up their life,
because they’re actually living it."
In a world of "mine is better than yours", gossip, and easy offense I am reminded that all of those are ways a life discontented tries to medicate itself.
There is no sustaining self-satisfaction; there is a peace that surpasses all understanding (Phil 4:7) and allows us to live in true humility, living a life of abundance (Jn 10:10).
My life has been full...very full as of late. In the best way possible. Being active in the Kingdom of God isn't about "down time" or "taking it easy"; it's about getting things done. And as exciting as it has been it's about to get even crazier.
I leave for Sweden tomorrow.
and then Denmark.
and then Norway.
and then Sydney.
Friends, I don't mind telling you that to me packing is torture. Especially this trip since I'll be flying into winter (or in my mind I'm calling it "super-winter") and then to summer. A bipolar suitcase indeed. But it will get done. And something will be forgotten. I'm sure of it.
Please pray for travel mercies; airports are one of the few things that stress me out upon contact.
Here's to living life, from sea to viking sea :)
