Living Wisdom: BEWARE OF ALL FORMS OF PRIDE

Taken from Guidebook to Living

When I am blessed with abundance,
I will beware lest my heart becomes proud,
and I forget the Lord my God who provided all good things,
thinking that it was my power and the strength of my hand
that brought this wealth.
(Deuteronomy 8:12-14, 17)

Pride goes before destruction,
and a haughty spirit before a fall.
(Proverbs 16:18)

Lord God,

May I ever cultivate the wisdom of gratitude in all things so that I remember that every good thing comes from Your hand. You graciously provide me with far more than I deserve, and I acknowledge that it is Your power and the strength of Your hand that has blessed me.

Amen.
