Humble

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.” (James 4:10)

What a wonderful verse to ponder upon... How much in today's Christianity is about a man, and how little about God... We are constantly bombarded with messages of "getting better" once we "choose" God. Prosperity Gospel is everywhere. Your best life is supposedly right now, and you are supposedly the centre of the universe. God is only a nice uncle in the sky, waiting patiently to satisfy your whims. Really?

You are but a corn of dust in His hand, human. You are nothing without Him. Don't you see? Isn't it the only proper way to realize it and act accordingly? Nothing depends on you, so stop patting yourself on the back and smirking.
He's holding whole world in His hand... and He is going to hold you, too. Bow to the Creator of all.
