....pride comes before destruction...

"...pride comes before destruction..." - Proverbs 11:2


Do you have times where:

A. People don't listen to you
B. You feel like the boss?


Well your're in a tight spot! You have two options:

You can either feel proud,
or you can just remain calm and show humility



God loves it when we show humility. If we are proud, we want to keep everyone under control. This leads to many more unneeded wars, corruption and political problems...
How can I stay under control?
Read your Bible, pray every day!
"God has a plan for people who a proud, and people who show humility" - Isaiah 2:12

God's plan for the proud is not a good one!

Which choice are you going to make?

Proverbs 11:2

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life.

Take Up Your Cross! Plus information about Matthew 10:34-36!

"Then He [Jesus] said to them all: 'Whoever wants to be My disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow Me" - Luke 9:23  The cross example used here means our responsibilities  and/or temptations as Christians. Daily, we fight the Devil and his schemes. Daily we face temptation. But we always overcome come it, if we have faith. Jesus never said that this life, would be a life of freedom! In this world's cycle, there is always an enemy. In this case, Satan, who is boiled over with jealousy at our power and inheritance! Of course, we have our blessings, but daily we must serve Jesus. That is what this verse means. To serve Jesus daily.
