Do Not Be Proud

Ps 75 is a gentle reminder for us to remain humble and meek. L and I were having a conversation recently and we were commenting that it is not easy to remain meek and gentle. Meekness requires God to bring us to a place of brokenness and being contrite in His presence.

No wonder, vs 5 can be sung ... Do not life up your horn on high, do not speak with a stiff neck..... God is the Judge. Vs 10 ... the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

Can we encourage each other to be humble, gentle and meek? Are we willing to associate ourselves with those who are in pain, hurting or even those in agony? Can we have compassion on those who are weaker than us and be patient, constantly exercising the fear and the love of Jesus? Are we able to demonstrate Christ in tangible ways so that Christ be made known? Do we personally allow the Lord to heal our rejection, wounds and learn to find acceptance & significance in HIM?
