I am so humbled and at the same time so ashamed.. So ashamed and bad about how I have been treating Lucas with impatience. Its time like this that I know my "love bank" is low and I need topping up. Maybe because I spent most of my Sunday at home, and more time with him means seeing more of his naughty acts. Some of them really frustrates me especially when he gets in your way of doing things..I prayed for forgiveness and hope that Lucas would forgive me in future.
Anyway, I needed to pray. Its time like this when I realised how weak and imperfect I am. And I felt ashame at the way I treated Lucas, and the impatience that was really getting to me.
Its also time of weakness like this, that the Lord is glorified. Isa 43:4 came to mind and He reminded me that I am precious and loved. And because He love me, He will give men in exchange for my life and people in exchange for me.
I am humbled to be reminded that the ministry that I have among the girls today is not because I am good in any way. The ministry that I have is a result of His love for me and His honor toward me. He reminded me that even though I am weak, He has chosen me to do His work- to touch the lives of the girls. I am only a broken vessel used by God, for His glory. No matter how much I do or how much I have, I am but a broken vessel. N my purpose is to bring glory to my Master. I am so humbled by Lucas and my God. So humbled by God's choice of man- that He use the weak and poor in the world.
