Humility

God is wise and powerful—who could possibly oppose him and win? ~ Job 9:4 (CEV)

Get along with each other; don’t be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don’t be the great somebody. ~ Romans 12:16 (MSG)

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Approach God and others with humility.

PRAYER
God, you have modeled humility for us in the way that you saved us. You sent Christ into the world to sacrifice his life on behalf of broken and despicable humanity. I'm grateful -- even though I haven't fully caught the humility, yet. I wouldn't describe myself as arrogant or stuck-up but I have these moments when I'm so sure of myself that I don't care what others think or how my opinion will affect them. Gently guide me into the humble lifestyle of Christ so that all who notice me will see how wise, powerful, and gracious you are. Amen.
