Knock Me Down

Humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time, He will lift you up in honor. 1 Peter 5:6

It was not too terribly long ago that I was extremely overweight and burned out from years of drug abuse.  I was lonely, on the verge of depression; my life was wrecked.  It was also not until I finally accepted the fact that I had some problems before I humbled myself and eventually asked for some help. 

Pride can prevent you from asking for the help that you need.  Humility gives you the wisdom and courage to admit your needs in any situation.  You simply won't get help-from God or from any other family member or friend-if you cannot admit you have a problem. 

When you are humble, God's power is at your disposal, and He promises to help you, regardless of any situation.  Don't let our pride stop you from getting the help you need.

Let My Love Open The Door

Anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.  Matthew 18:4

Some days, I daydream about being a young child again; full of life, humility, innocence, and love.  Times just seemed a little easier, growing up, didn't they???  

As a working stiff, married adult and the father of two young children, I feel like I have more responsibilities now than I could even possibly begin to name here.  However, being a father has taught me a valuable lesson-the less I strive to bring honor to myself, the more God honors and blesses me.

Humility opens the door for God to work in your life because you are willing to seek His help and give Him the glory and honor.

Pride is true weakness, for it relies on our selfish and bloated egos.  True strength is in humility, for its effects reach deep into the Kingdom of Heaven. (Basically, we just need to do the opposite of what Kayne West does!) So, let us humble ourselves before the Lord!
