Humility Comes When Asking, "IS IT I?"

The recent events...
from a milestone birthday for me
a celebration for my son's birthday
to death's door for my grandmother and friend
to viewing the movie, The Son of God
ALL
intermingled with the duties
that come
with daily living and
the challenges that continue to zapp my inner strength
to a lesson on humility...

I thank Rena for encouraging me through "Walking with the Savior"
to hand everything over to Jesus.
It has made all the difference.

As I read about this week's focus
"Lord, Is It I ?"
 I was brought to my knees
to experience a cup of HUMILITY
 "And as they did eat Jesus said, 'Verily, I say unto you, one of you which eateth with me
shall betray me...'
And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, 'Is it I' and another said, 'Is it I'?"
(Mark 14:18-19)

From Rena's Book
Lord, Is It I ?
who has offended someone,
who has hurt another,
who has been judgmental,
who gossips,
who covets my neighbor's belongings,
who is prideful,
who is overly critical,
who is unforgiving?

(Walking with the Savior, Page 22)

Lord, Is It I ?
