"All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because 'God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.' [Proverbs 3:34]. Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:5-7)
Lia and I watched a DVD of Andy Stanley talking about these verses. I really liked the way he defined 'grace'. He said, the definition of grace in these verses is the promise that God will give us what we need when we need it. It's ours when we humble ourselves and ask for it.
more tomorrow...
