If any man thinks ill of you, do not be angry with him, for you are worse than he thinks you to be. – Spurgeon

Sobering reminder for a Monday morning, I know.

When I read or listen to something that reminds me of just how imperfect I am, it is a bit disheartening at first.

It’s a clear reminder of the imperative of humility over pride.

It’s also a clear reminder that nobody’s perfect, but we all have value.

We can wallow in our imperfection or lean into that inherent value, always trying to add more.

Let’s humbly work towards a better version of ourselves as we start this week.

Make it a great day.
