Arrogant or humble? Luke 14:11

Good morning all! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

So what is happening in your life today? Yesterday? Yesterday, entitled how arrogant are you my main question was about you and your spiritual life. Are you as the pharisee or the tax collector?

You have no choice as you were born in sin, but you do have a choice in acceptance or rejection of God. The pharisee did not go to the Temple to pray to God, but to announce to all within earshot how good he was. Do you know people like this? Are you one of them?

The tax collector went recognizing his sin and begging for mercy. Self-righteousness is dangerous. It leads to pride, causes a person to despise others, and prevents him or her from learning anything from God.

the tax collector's prayer should be our prayer because we all need God's mercy every day. Don't let pride in your achievements cut you off from God.

Remember, Luke 14:11 "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."

Love you all. God bless you and your walk each moment.
In Christ's Love and Grace
