Daily Gratitude Year 8- Day 29: Today, I am grateful for those who graciously take last place.Waiting is hard. Coming in last is disappointing. Being left with the grunt work hurts the ego and it can be discouraging. Still, we are reminded that embracing the role of humble servant is a kind of service to the Lord.
He sat down, called the twelve disciples over to him, and said, “Whoever wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else.” -Mark 9:35
Do we graciously accept last place? Do we only find contentment in the winning? Where does our light shine more brightly? Attitude has so much to do the answer to these questions.
"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud."-1 Corinthians 13:4
Let grace and love lead. Last has its purpose and its place.
Today, I am grateful for those who graciously take last place.
