I love in all of our readings this week how they have talked about the importance of humbling yourself and being wiling to yield. When we become stubborn and unwilling to let anything or anyone influence us I think we miss a lot of great growing opportunities. These read ins have helped me to realize the importance of expressing your wants and needs but doing so in a way that isn't self righteous. It's important to be honest with each other and make sure your needs are being met, but it shouldn't be done in an entitled way. We should remember to keep ourselves humble and learn to serve the people we love. 9/10 times when we are loving and serving others it creates a loving environment that will then encourage others to do the same. I know this isn't always true, but I've found that as we are striving to love and serve others, they will typically do the same in return. It create an atmosphere of love and you want to do nice things for each other.
