Pride

Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God and He will lift you up…. (1 Pet 5:6)

Pride manifests itself in many ways.


When we find it difficult to submit to God’s dealings in our lives, and end up complaining and wondering why we should be going through challenges, pride is at the root of it, sometimes we have this I don’t deserve this mentality making it hard for us to accept those dealings quietly, trusting God that says in His word Isa 43:8
There is a saying that “when you can't seem to find Him, just trust Him.” His ways are not our ways and He knows us better than we know ourselves.

I believe that storms, difficulties come for a reason and if in His wisdom He allows them, then our attitude should be to simply trust Him quietly and see the end He has in mind, remember Job, it is not always going to be easy, but God has not called us to do anything His Son Jesus manifest in the flesh has not done, and He knows that His grace made available to us is able to carry us through to the end if only we can be patient.
