"Are you wiling to pursue a life that "acts justly, loves mercy, and walks humbly with God" (micah 6:8)? How is your pride to be broken, and replaced instead with humility today?" - Wellspring, by Steve Macchia
The breaking hurts.
Pride in accomplishing good
in helping people
still is PRIDE.
Pause. Breath.
"Oh weary one.
Come back to me - pick up my yoke and come with me again.
What you thought was the way is your idea of good - I know even more abundant goodness...
will you join me in bringing it to pass?
I will give you rest.
Restoration. New life.
Pause. Breath.
Come with me - gently, humbly, I will lead this time.
It will be very good."
(inspired from Matthew 11:29-30)
