Who God Opposes
1 Peter 5b – . . . clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
God responds to us as we respond to one another. Who could stand against God if He were to oppose them? We submit to Him by submitting to one another. In exchange, we receive the grace of God. What shall we desire more, our pride or the grace of God and His good favor?
As we interact with those around us, may we give the benefit of the doubt, slow to speak and quick to listen. Never assume full understanding. Cling only to “Thus saith the Lord”.
