A Proud Heart

We know that we should share our glory with God -- oops, I think that is reversed.

Nebuchadnezzar was told that his glory and kingdom came from God.

Nebuchadnezzar was warned that his pride, and claiming the honor that belonged to God for his own was not good.

Yet, he still exalted himself above God.

When the crash came, it still took him 7 years to accept that which he knew in theory for many years.

It is a good thing that we are not like him. We stand guard over our pride so that we will not voice the same sentiment that he did.

Are we standing guard against letting our attitude out, or do we truly believe that our glorious (or almost glorious) little kingdom is completely a result of God's grace, not our own skills and wisdom.

May we learn from Nebuchadnezzar's experience rather than having to repeat it for ourselves.

God Bless,

Pastor Wayne
