Win with Honor...

On a different note,

Just finished a 3 day wknd at Bikeweek... 3 shows on the biggest stages in Daytona, at the biggest biker event in the world! This is our 3rd year playing Main St. for all the world to see... I still get excited, giddy and humbled at the opportunity to share the stage with some Incredible musicians! I Mean AMAZING! I find myself star struck at times, in awe of those guys around me! I hope to never out grow that feeling, or to take such a gift, blessing and opportunity for granted!
There is so much value in being a person of humility. It runs much deeper than the worldly description or definition. Pride before the fall they say... the damage that is done by being led by our personal gratification is immense. Being humble in the Blessings we are provided  allows for the opportunity to give praise, credit and Glory to the one who gave you the opportunity to begin with!! As you have read my previous posts, we must come to a place of recognition that this Life is in the hands of our Creator. We have choices to make, but If we're willing to give Him the lead, watch out! Humility allows Him to lead us down a path paved with Gold!
If we look at humility from a more human perspective... We all share this great earth as one body, we are all equals in the eyes of God. If we take our victories at personal conquests we are missing the Joy, fulfillment, & true victory in accomplishment! We all want to feel the power in Success, but don't we want to share it with those around us? Do we think gloating is going to allow others to celebrate with us? Like the Lord, we must choose to let others in... let others share our joys, pains, up & downs... Pride only keeps people out! The "I Got This", or "I DID THIS" mentality only alienates. It takes a village to raise an idiots...LOL... honestly, it takes so many people to accomplish any of our goals, so, let's celebrate together!
Most arguments are rooted in the desire for someone to be heard, validated or just needing to get their personal view out there! Does anyone win in a battle over opinion? Do You think anyone ever argued the case for Christ and changed someone's heart by pushing, pressing and being prideful?
Here's a cool fact... Since None of Us are worthy, All of us are just as worthy! Dwell on that for a second! God has a plan, and He uses the weak to show the strong that is bigger than these worldly standards! Be excited for the little things, the opportunities and of course the BIG things! Do it with Love, thankfulness & honor!

Good day & God Bless,
Chris
