Proverbs 29:23
The Message
23 Pride lands you flat on your face;
humility prepares you for honors.
Just a thought here today regarding pride and humility. At a quick glance, someone who is exercising pride in their life can sometimes come across as someone we think of as having a "strong" personality. While the humble can be mistaken for "weak."
The interesting point I would like to make is that it is actually quite the opposite. The proud are very weak, and the humble are very strong.
For this very simple reason: pride can be broken, but humility cannot - because it already is and therein lies its strength.
