IN AWE
Verse
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.
Proverbs 1:7
Voice
The first step of humility is to cherish at all times the
sense of awe with which we should turn to God.
Benedict of Nursia
Prayer
God, may the awe of your presence shield us from the
temptation to think too highly of ourselves. May we
cultivate humility by pointing ourselves at you. Amen.

VACATION IN JERUSALEM
A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation
to Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife
passed away.
The undertaker told the husband, "You can have
her shipped home for $5000, or you can bury her
here, in the Holy Land, for only $150."
The man thought about it and decided he would
just have her shipped home for $5000.
The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend
$5000 to ship your wife home, when it would be
wonderful to be buried here and you would spend
only $150?"
The man replied, "Long ago a man called Jesus
Christ died here, was buried here, and three days
later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that
chance."
