Saturday, May 16th. Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

Two goats met one another upon a narrow plank set up across a river, so that they could not pass by without one thrusting the other off. If they had been human beings they would have argued about who had the right to survive. But the goats figured out how one could help the other and, at the same time, help itself. One lay down and let the other leap over it.

In our quest to be first, many times we find that no one wins. Let us be willing to step aside that we mighty win both physically as well as spiritually. Let us remember the lesson found in the Gospel of Mark:

“But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.”
Mark 10:31

God let me step aside that you might be glorified. Give me wisdom to esteem others higher than myself. (Luke 14:10)

Let us be found faithful.
