The more humble we stay the more God blesses us. #PowerofHumility #remainhumble . . JAMES 4:6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.” . . . 📸🌺from #erichflowers ________________________ #joyfulverse #James46 #Godopposestheproud #favortothehumble https://www.instagram.com/joyfulverse/p/BtQ8elwF7zH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c7tigfyokmez

I love this, but as a friend once told me, “in the end if you don’t resolve it you’ll have regrets because the person wasn’t involved in the important times in your life”. That person he referred to passed away. Mend and build those relationships. #Repost @desiringgod ・・・ "We must reject the counsel of our pride and accept the instruction of our Lord, who says 'humble yourselves,' because the humble will ultimately be exalted, but the proud will ultimately be horribly humbled (1 Peter 5:6; Matthew 23:12).⠀ ⠀ And, yes, this is hard. Killing pride is hard. It requires courage — the courage of faith. For it means nothing less than placing ourselves in the vulnerable place where we fear we may (and just might actually) be rejected; in the weak position where we will lose our negotiating leverage; in the lowly place where we are forced to admit how foolish and selfish we really are. We must trust God with the loss of reputation capital we might experience, and with the possibility that others could use our confession and humility to their advantage.⠀ ⠀ We must trust God that his promise through the apostle James is more reliable than the promises our pride makes: that if we humble ourselves, he will '[give] more grace,' because 'God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble' (James 4:6). More grace will flow the more humble we become."⠀ ⠀ Read more at desiringGod.org.
