God is said to position Himself against the proud and resist them. If I find my path closed off, my attitude may very well be the reason. Much of our progress, or the lack of it, comes down to our pride. If I stubbornly insist on doing things my way, I may find that it is God blocking my efforts instead of blessing them. Do we not cage a stubborn and unbroken stallion, but give the open range to the humble and trustworthy steed whose heart belongs to its master.
“God is opposed to the proud but gives grace to the humble.” James 4.6 Conversations Within” ts 10/12/2017
