"When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom." -Proverbs 11:2
How about a little free association?....What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word "ugly?" For me, it is the concept of pride....which can probably be considered the universal curse of mankind. It's one of those things that is so easy to spot in the "other" person. Today may be a good day to check our "pride-o-meters" within (I think I just made up a new word!...that sounds rather prideful though, huh?).
Let's turn it around. Have you ever experienced a person with true, authentic humility. I am so blessed to be able to say that I have seen this modeled in my life through my own father. It is one of the most beautiful things on the face of this earth. Today, let's choose beauty, humility and wisdom....over ugly, pride and disgrace. Lord, help us to see clearly within.
