Bible Verse: James 4:6
“And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.’"
Reflect and Respond: Jesus was both confident and humble. How does confidence in God allow you to be humble?
Prayer: Lord, thank You for Your generous grace. Help me understand what it means to be truly humble and willing to build others up rather than tear them down. Amen.

Thank you, Lord. Amen.
Amen
I'm the product of a bipartisan marriage. My father voted for Trump; My mother voted for Biden.
I believe some of my alleged brothers and sisters in Christ would unfairly attack me for that.
Should I just take the abuse, or stick up for myself?
I believe some of my alleged brothers and sisters in Christ would unfairly attack me for that.
Should I just take the abuse, or stick up for myself?
Heavenly father, thank you for your continual guidance on grace each day of my life and trust in you as I come before thee for thy mercy on me to continue shearing thy words with wisdom to others.
