This Week’s Theme – Humility
September 13, 2018
Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
Proverbs 16:18-19
Thought For Today
When pride creeps in, it tends to increase until eventually, it leads to a fall. And it ALWAYS ends with a collapse in our life. Whether it ends in repentance or ruin, is based on our choices. When we do not address the sin of pride, it creates more distance in our spiritual life, leading us to believe we are somehow exempt from God’s plans and no longer need to regard Him and His place of authority in us.
This thinking doesn’t fit with today’s culture and mindset, but according to today’s verse, it’s better to be poor and humble than rich and proud. But whatever status you achieve in life, make humility a part of your DNA.
