God resisteth the proud
|
We
had a very good weekend and an Awesome Sunday!! The Lord has sent the
revival, we have been praying for. So many in our youth group have been
changed, it is just so exciting to hear their testimonies.
I have been pondering James 4: 6 latley. I lead a hectic life, and
sometimes it seems I need *Giant* doses of Grace, minute by minute. Yet
I felt like I was just barely surviving, I hated feeling that
way. For a while now I have been asking the Lord for more joy in the
journey, He stoped me in my tracks with this verse. But he giveth more grace. (I really really liked that part) Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, But giveth grace to the humble. (OUCH!)
I seen myself in the mirror of His word, that wasn't a pretty sight! I really struggle with owning up when I am wrong, I'm ashamed to say my
mind plays out many senarios as to how I can make it look a little
better for myself, and next I begin to believe everything *IS* someone
elses fault. And it all boils down to, wanting to keep a certain image.
In the few weeks, that I have been pondering & reading this verse.
I am experiencing victory in this area, one small step at a time. There are other areas of pride, I am still praying for victory in. Yet I can rest in Phil.1:6
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good
work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ!
My 7yr old is playing games on the Laptop beside me. She just said the
funniest thing, she had her finger in one postion to long, and it sorta
froze in that postion, she told me it felt so wierd, just like her
skeleton was backing up on her. LOL
