Tonight's topic was humility.

Do I live my life for me or for God? Do my concerns circle around me or Him?
Do I do things for God or do I allow him to do things through me?

I'm not a humble person. I compare myself to other people all the time. I use other people to make myself feel better. I think to myself "Wow, I'm glad I'm not as judgmental as him." As terrible as that sounds... I do it. I try not to but it happens.

I was driving around last night thinking (I tend to do my best thinking while driving around aimlessly) and came to a realization. I have always wanted to go skydiving but I'm not sure if I will be able to actually do it. I mean to actually take that step out of the airplane into nothing and fall. Just fall. I know once I start falling it will be the best feeling in the world and the greatest adrenaline rush ever, but the initial step is going to be the hardest. Then, tonight while listening to the lesson on humility I thought about my skydiving fears. I'm afraid to take that step. I'm afraid to let go of everything and allow God to have complete control. I think this is why I compare myself to other people because it allows me to retain some sort of control. The first step is going to be the hardest but I know that everything after that will be the best thing that could ever happen to me.

It's funny how things in life happen.

Anyways... I just wanted to share my thoughts.

Tonight's the night when the sinners and the saints,
Two worlds collide,
In a glorious display.
