"Live in harmony with each other. Don't try to act important, but enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don't think you know it all!" Romans 12:16 NLT

Can one verse have any more themes? It was Air1's verse of the day, and since I listen to it ALL day long at work, I heard it many times. It kept on speaking to me. It's simple really.
Be loving.
Be humble.
Be teachable.

Enjoy the company of ordinary people is kind of funny to me. I think it means that people put certain people on pedastals - pastors, elders, leaders in the church. Yet we don't need to spend all of our time with the godliest of the godly people. We can simply love on and be friends with anybody. It goes good with the verse, "don't think of anyone higher than ye ought to think" Maybe that verse is "don't think of yourself more highly than ye ought to think". Regardless, I think it applies to both. We need to be humble and can't think highly of ourselves. Yet if we elevate others, we will be let down and may end out making them an idol in our lives. We must be careful and pray for God's help and love to teach us and sustain us.

"Things don't always work out the way you want them to,
but things always work out the way they are supposed to."
My supervisor from my work said that yesterday. She has been going through a tough time. Even though I haven't been through anything bad lately, I think it is still applicable to any situation and anyone.

Ecclessiastes 3:1 says, "To everything there is a time, to everything there is a season."
So many times I will want to know something right away. Where should I work? What should I do? Should I be going to school? To become a teacher or occupational therapist? When is the next stage of my life coming? Yet, it will all come in the time that God has planned and that He allows. I don't need to worry about anything, it will all happen when it's supposed to - when God wants it to.
