Hello humility


A mini whoopie pie from Starbucks. It's basically red velvet cake with cream cheese whip cream in the middle. I would not recommend this. It's dry and too sweet.


Every Monday morning, as a treat for myself, I like to indulge in a cup of Peets coffee. I am really not a coffee snob, but I can't help and utter how fabulous I think Peet's coffee are. It's strong and dark- just the way I like them. You don't know how disappointed I am when I drink water down coffee. Although, there are occasions when I would stop by for McDonald's coffee; they are also not bad.

For good coffee, I like to add maybe 3 tablespoons of cream and a pack of sugar cane sugar. I recently discovered sugar cane sugar; they add a better tasting sweetness and are healthier for you. Just enough cream and sugar to enhance the flavor of the coffee. As I did my routine near the cream/ sugar counter today, I noticed that there were 2 guys who pour lots of cream and sugar in their coffee. I was shocked.

I had a cup of peets this morning and it hit the spot. Sigh..... :) !!

At church yesterday, the pastor talked about humility. Some of the words still resonated with me today. I think I am a very humble person and hearing the service yesterday helped me understand more about humility. It's more than just not bragging. Our weakness is our strength that God uses so that we may serve others. The pastor said: 'We should be humble by God's strength and boast our weakness so that others may also praise His works. ' I had to think about that one for a bit.

I am going to practice humility this week by acknowledging His awesome power in everything.
