Are you humble or proud?

Good morning everyone!! What a great day to be alive in the LORD JESUS CHRIST!!! Evil desires, but, I don't have evil desires, I just want a new......WAIT!! House? Car? 4-Wheeler? Boat? Clothes? The key word here is WANT, and not NEED! God will provide our needs and are you humble?

James 4:6 But he give us even more grace to stand against such evil desires. As the Scriptures say, "God opposes the proud but favors the humble.""

The cure for evil desires is humility. Pride makes us self-centered and leads us to conclude that we deserve all we can see, touch, or imagine. It creates greedy appetites for far more than we need. We can be released from our self-centered desires by humbling ourselves before God. We must realize we need HIS approval.

1 Peter 5:5,6 "In the same way, you younger men must accept the authority of the elders. and all of you, serve each other in humility, for "God opposes the proud but favors the humble."" We often worry about our position and status, hoping to get proper recognition for what we do. But Peter advises us to remember that God's recognition counts more than human praise. God is able and willing to bless us according to his timing. Humbly obey God regardless of present circumstances, and in his good time-either in this life or in the next HE WILL HONOR YOU.

Are you humble or proud? Thank you for reading with me today. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
