Living Like a Queen

It seems as if everyday I am given more and more opportunities to humble myself.  When I encounter a situation that stirs in me immediate defensiveness, I recognize that as a warning alarm.  The decision I next make will either exalt my own self-pride or give me the opportunity--indeed the profound blessing-- of laying down my own life and picking up the crown that holds kindness and love.   To humble myself is to be exalted by my Father, the King of Kings!  A blessed opportunity indeed!.
