Psalm 31:23
23 Love the Lord, all you his saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride.
Here’s the real question: are you more in love with God or yourself? Which love wins in a fight? The results of each option are described above. You can either love God most which makes you a saint and faithful, or you can love yourself most, with is called pride.
If in your heart, pride wins, you are working against the flow of the universe. You have attempted to make a fantasy into a reality. Believing you can fly is harmless if it’s only a fantasy, but if you try to make it a reality, you’ll break your neck. At some point, God will either preserve you because you are His or He will let you attempt to fly on your own. Humble yourself before God.
Prayer prompt: Lord, increase in my love of You and humble my heart.
