Staying Humble

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. -Colossians 3:12

Some days I learn a lesson by making a mistake. 
Last week on Wednesday, I posted a painting of a beautiful goldfinch, 
which I mistakenly posted as my mom's painting.
My daughter Maggie reminded me she had painted that beautiful bird. 

So this week, I humble myself as I post the lovely house finch my mom painted.

I find as I get older, I still have much to learn, 
mistakes to make, and humbleness to experience.

That's okay, because I want God to keep teaching me in my humility.
