But I am poor and sorrowful:

"But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high" (Psalms 69:29 KJV). The Lord is looking for a humble and willing child in this last hour. So many people are hurt and in the pains of yesterday. Many of them still live in the rejection and shame that life has sewn into their souls, whether it was from a few days ago or a few years ago. God is calling a humble people to go out into the highways and the byways and to begin to proclaim the Good News and to reach out to those who are lost in darkness. Jesus Christ has fellowship with the humble man and woman. He is able to use them as His servants and mold those who call upon Him daily. This world has too many superstars and not enough humble men. This world is full of men who are all about themselves, filled with pride, filled with riches, and filled with self glory. God is looking for a man or woman who has given up on their own strength, on their own wisdom, and on their own selves. This kind of humility can only come by denying oneself and bearing one's cross daily. Jesus is our greatest example on how to live a humble life. He lived not on His own understanding or authority, but He lived under the authority of God the Father, and He only did as the Father told Him to do. Let us learn how to recognize the voice of the Holy Spirit and begin to walk under and be controlled by His authority. When we do this, we can watch our lives become an example of humility and meekness. With that heart of humility inside of us, God is able to move us in the direction where He needs us to be, even if it is among the broken and the wicked sinner. Our hearts won't mind it because we are following the will of God. God bless you. Amen
