Humility

I learned another lesson in humility today. As one who is not so gifted in the vocal realm, I realized its vanity that keeps me from singing as loud as I might. Today the woman who sat behind me singing in church is a throat cancer survivor. You know the drill, she has the voicebox that she has to push on in order to talk to you in her mechanical sounding voice. But I listened to her singing her best this morning. She truly had a song on her heart, and was letting the world know it. I decided I take too much for granted. For those of you who are gifted vocally...you'll just have to start tolerating the rest of us!
