Blah, blah, blah. This one seems a little self serving.
the one thing that I was able to take from this....and I'm not even sure its really in there....but, it popped into my head anyway. 18 "For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends."
I told you I just got a decent raise......well.......this week my organization sent out a new structure notification. It was only referring to the top level of Design Staffs management. Guess who was mentioned in the notification? They are promoting me to run the entire studio. I am only 1 report from the VP of Design now. That's a big deal!.....that means another healthy raise on top of the one that I already received. Sort of a double dip.
When I read this chapter, it reminded me to be humble in my approach to the new spot, and to be careful when I talk about it to others about it. Not sure if its really in there, but for some reason God is nudging me on this one.

I was like you not getting a ton but the verse you quoted is the one that struck me too.
