Pride before the fall
"For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself." Galatians 6:3
Many times a brave face can turn into a proud spirit. We get so comfortable doing things on our own, that even when there's a need, we can't accept help. For me, yesterday was a perfect storm for disaster. I left my phone in my car, got sick at work, the ambulance came, everyone was worried and I couldn't do a thing about it. As I rested at home, I was completely embarrassed about the entire situation and God checked my pride. What areas of your life are you proud? Repent and give them over to God, he wants your anxieties, your pride, your attitude, everything that's not of him. Happy Friday!

Opposite Day
"An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge." Proverbs 18:15
Let's pretend that it's "Opposite Day." You know, the childhood game where you replace a word with the antithesis of it. The verse now reads something like this "the ignorant heart refuses to acquire knowledge, and the ear of the foolish hates seeking knowledge". We should continually be growing in our walk with God. That includes finding resources that clarify the scriptures, taking time to read and study, and making an effort to be a student for life. What knowledge are you currently seeking? Happy Monday!
"Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance" Proverbs 1:5
