Part of an Awakening Salutation in the upcoming book, the Rhythm of Virtue, by Denise Flora at Lulu.com, iinspired by the 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life.
Inside the 14c porch are stone benches and corbel that once supported a lower roof, one with the date inscribed 1631. Entrance to the nave is through a "humility" doorway - Church of St Peter, Claypole Lincolnshire
Humility and meekness fit hand in glove. May we remember that “none is acceptable before God, save the meek and lowly in heart.” spiritualcrusade.blogspot.com/2018/02/spiritual-eclipse-b...

"You are the salt of the earth."
- —Matthew 5:13
For this week's MacroMondays group theme of "Humility" - my inspirations was to look up quotes on humility and let them guide me. Did not post the salt photos to MM in favor of two others...
Thd difference between this shot and the Salt 1 of 2 is this one used a flash. You can see slightly better definition and more sparkles from the salt crystals.
And in case ANYONE is interested, this is Kosher Salt, as opposed to regular table salt or sea salt.
Versículo de hoy: "Si se humillare mi pueblo, sobre el cual mi nombre es invocado, y oraren, y buscaren mi rostro, y se convirtieren de sus malos caminos; entonces yo oiré desde los cielos, y perdonaré sus pecados, y sanaré su tierra" 2 Crónicas 7:14
Today's verse: "If my people, on whom my name is named, make themselves low and come to me in prayer, searching for me and turning from their evil ways; then I will give ear from heaven, overlooking their sin, and will give life again to their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14

A diferencia de las plantas, que no se mueven y deben ser frecuentemente pasivas (hay otros mecanismos que lo compensan, como las plantas que buscan la luz en una caja de zapatos), nosotros no podemos quedarnos quietos para recibir nuestro alimento, debemos trabajar. La mayor parte de la gente se preocupa de los alimentos tangibles, como el pan. Mientras que deja de lado aquello que es más importante, esa parte espiritual que tenemos los seres humanos. También necesitamos alimentar nuestro espíritu.
Si uno pregunta a la gente en la calle, ¿alguna vez te has dedicado a buscar a Dios?, probablemente casi todos te digan que no. ¿Quiénes podrían contestarte lo contrario? Aquellos que tuvieron una crisis, que vivieron en una familia religiosa o que son curiosos por naturaleza y desearon conocer más sobre él. No deberíamos buscarlo solo cuando tenemos problemas, si no que siempre. Algo que nos puede ayudar a encontrarlo es la humildad.
Unlike plants, which do not move and should be frequently passive (there are other mechanisms to compensate, as plants seek the light in a shoe box), we can not sit still for our food, we must work. Most people worry tangible food, like bread. While leaving aside what is most important, the spiritual part we humans.
If you ask people on the street, do you ever dedicated to seeking God?, Probably almost everyone will say no. Who could answer you otherwise? Those who had a crisis, who lived in a religious family or who are naturally curious and wanted to know more about it. We should not look only when we have problems, if not always. Something that can help us find it is humility. Also need to nourish our spirit.

With characteristic humility 'W O' was constantly amazed by the enthusiasm of later generations for the products of Bentley Motors Limited, and it is testimony to the soundness of his engineering design skills that so many of his products have survived. From the humblest of beginnings in a mews garage off Baker Street, London in 1919 the Bentley rapidly achieved fame as an exciting fast touring car, well able to compete with the best of European and American sports cars in the tough world of motor sport in the 1920s. Bentley's domination at Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930 is legendary, and one can only admire the Herculean efforts of such giants as Woolf Barnato, Jack Dunfee, Tim Birkin and Sammy Davis, consistently wrestling the British Racing Green sports cars to victory.
W O Bentley proudly unveiled the new 3-litre car bearing his name on Stand 126 at the 1919 Olympia Motor Exhibition, the prototype engine having fired up for the first time just a few weeks earlier. Bentley's four-cylinder 'fixed head' engine incorporated a single overhead camshaft, four-valves per cylinder and a bore/stroke of 80x149mm. Twin ML magnetos provided the ignition and power was transmitted via a four-speed gearbox with right-hand change. The pressed-steel chassis started off with a wheelbase of 9' 9½", then adopted dimensions of 10' 10" ('Standard Long') in 1923, the shorter frame being reserved for the TT Replica and subsequent Speed Model. Rear wheel brakes only were employed up to 1924 when four-wheel Perrot-type brakes were introduced.
In only mildly developed form, this was the model that was to become a legend in motor racing history and which, with its leather-strapped bonnet, classical radiator design and British Racing Green livery, has become the archetypal Vintage sports car.
Early success in the 1922 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy, when Bentleys finished second, fourth, and fifth to take the Team Prize, led to the introduction of the TT Replica (later known as the Speed Model) on the existing 9' 9½" wheelbase, short standard chassis. Identified by the Red Label on its radiator, the Speed Model differed by having twin SU 'sloper' carburettors, a higher compression ratio, different camshaft and the close-ratio A-type gearbox, the latter being standard equipment prior to 1927 when the C-type 'box was adopted. These engine changes increased maximum power from the standard 70 to 80bhp and raised top speed to an impressive 90mph. Other enhancements included the larger (11-gallon) fuel tank and (usually) Andre Hartford shock absorbers. Bentley made approximately 1,600 3-Litre models, the majority of which was bodied by Vanden Plas with either open tourer or saloon coachwork.
Dr Clare Hay's authoritative work, Bentley, The Vintage Years, records the fact that '35' (with engine number '33') was completed in January 1922 on the standard 9' 9½" wheelbase chassis with coupé coachwork by the Wilton Carriage Company. The registration is recorded as 'XK 3010' and the first owner as one H A Baldwin. As its chassis number suggests, this is the 35th production car completed (and only the 40th Bentley ever made, taking into account the few experimental cars). Its engine is rather special, incorporating a Speed Model-type camshaft, lighter pistons, and the famous Smiths five-jet carburettor, which 'W O' believed gave better performance than the twin SUs more commonly employed.
Copies of the factory records on file list extensive maintenance and improvements made at the Cricklewood factory, and as well as listing successive owners up to the early 1930s. It appears that the car was under warranty from new until 1927, this six-year period indicating the car's quality and Bentley's confidence in its products.
'35' reappeared in the mid-1950s, complete but minus its body, in the ownership of George Strathdee, a well-known member of the Bentley Drivers' Club. It was Strathdee who fitted the car's current Harrison tourer body, which had been removed from chassis '90' (since destroyed).
In the 1990s the Bentley underwent a complete restoration (chassis, engine, axle, bodywork, etc) to the highest standard. In 2007 the car left the UK for the very first time when it was acquired by the immediately preceding owner, a French Bentley enthusiast, who would keep it for the next 15 years.
Now more than a century old, this magnificent early Bentley is presented in full working order and complete with all its accessories. It is eligible for numerous prestigious Historic events, most notably the Le Mans Classic, and would be a welcome entrant at any Concours d'Élégance or capable companion on any long-distance tour or rally.
If there is any advice Col. Kirk Gibbs can give to his successor, it is this: Lead with honor and humility.
As Gibbs, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District’s 61st commander, prepares to relinquish command of the LA District July 19 to Col. Aaron Barta, he offered up some advice and reflected on the past three years as the leader of one of the largest Corps districts in the country.
There are many things Gibbs said he is proud of when it comes to the LA District, but three things stand out: the District being recognized two years in a row as a "Best Place to Work" in the Corps; completing Weed Army Hospital at Fort Irwin, California – the Department of Defense’s only Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-Platinum, carbon-neutral, net-zero certifiable hospital – on time and within budget; and the one-on-one time he was able to spend with employees in the District.
It is the people Gibbs said he will miss the most – the employees and the District’s close partners across the four-state area.
“I have never focused on relationships like I have here in this District, and I sincerely believe it is part of the District's culture,” he said. “When projects are tough, the close relationships get us through those challenges and ultimately deliver the program.”
During his time with the LA District, Gibbs has overseen a multimillion-dollar program that provides engineering, construction, planning, contracting, real estate, emergency operations, environmental and regulatory services to military, federal, state and local governments across a 226,000-square-mile area of Southern California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. That also includes leading about 750 military and civilian personnel with a wide array of expertise.
But leading people is nothing new to Gibbs, who has served for more than 24 years as an active-duty Soldier, leading both military and civilian personnel.
“Each person is different, and I have learned that good leaders get to know each person individually and then lead them in a way that brings out the best in that employee,” he said.
Providing priorities and a solid intent on the District’s missions, particularly disaster response operations, helps employees stay focused on what’s really important, he said.
Gibbs will now serve as the chief of staff at the Corps’ headquarters in Washington, D.C. There, he said, he hopes to be an advocate for all of the Corps’ districts nationwide.
“I feel that this District and the great people are responsible for giving me the incredible opportunity of being the Corps’ chief of staff,” he said. “The people have taught me so much, and I will take that with me to make a positive impact on the Corps’ enterprise and help our Districts deliver our programs in civil works, military, Interagency and International Services, real estate and regulatory.”
Gibbs knows how the importance of mentors and having a good support system have played in shaping his career, and he credits his parents with instilling in him respect for others; his wife, Kim, who taught him to endure all challenges, no matter how great, with grace and dignity; and his former chief of staff – Col. Steve Hill – for giving him tough jobs to prepare him for success.
“(Hill) gave me tough jobs that I thought he could have done at the time, but as I look back, the toughest assignments he gave me in that civilian organization at the Corps headquarters prepared me for District command and enabled me to achieve the goal of commanding at the battalion, brigade and District levels,” he said. “I also remember he told me I would be a chief of staff for the Corps one day. He was preparing me for that. I didn't believe him, but that is my next job.”
And, as for additional advice he can share with Barta, Gibbs provided these words of wisdom:
- Be prepared to change leadership style when leading a District of professional civilians. Don't lead them in the same way as Soldiers;
- Engage with people and get around to see them across the District's entire area of operation. Don't sit behind a desk;
- Study hard initially and learn the policies, processes and programs. “You will never be the expert, but you must prepare yourself to make effective decisions as quickly as possible”;
- Always provide a commander's intent and an end state. The civilian workforce appreciates that; and, lastly,
- Lead with honor and humility. “It isn't about you. It is about the District's people and our vital mission.”
As for the future of the LA District, Gibbs said he hopes future leaders continue to change the culture to an organization that is more risk tolerant in streamlining processes and moving projects forward; deliver the Department of Veterans Affairs and Customs and Border Protection programs phenomenally – on time, within budget and to the highest quality; and to remain a "Best Place to Work" in order to retain and recruit talent to the high-cost living area of Southern California.
“I want the District to do what it always does and ‘knock those programs out of the park,’” he said.
I was surprised to find apart from some small remains of mediaeval glass this one and only stained glass window. It was put into St.Andrews in 1902.
