To order a slice of Humble Pie served southern style all one must do is teach God's Word to children. I have been wrestling with this inner turmoil of contentment for such a long time. Then today as I am teaching the children about the idolatry of the Israelites when they created the Golden Calf because God was doing what they thought he was supposed to do, I felt as if a knife wrenched in my heart. Oh, how I often do I do this. God provides in amazing ways all around me. Reminding me of His providence and goodness yet, I still act often out of disobedience. I want to scream and yell over these issues. Then even as I am writing this post I realize that the beauty of humble pie is that even though it may be tough to swallow the end result is still sweet and fulfilling. Thank you Lord for your tough and gentle love!
