Day 169: Proverbs 27-29

Today on Meditating the Word, we read further wise sayings of Solomon, the wicked and the righteous are contrasted.

This is Day 168. Today we are reading Proverbs 25-26

Father God, the proverbs speak a lot about humility. It's easy to look at our accomplishments and build ourselves up. It's considered good and healthy to praise ourselves, but that's not what Your Word says. It says we aren't to think of ourselves more highly than we should, that pride goes before a fall, and that we should let others build us up rather than ourselves. Help us to practice the same humility that Jesus had. Recognizing who we are in Christ, but knowing that who we are is because of who we are in, not because of anything that we've done. Amen
