2 Samuel 7:18 - "Then went king David in, and sat before the LORD, and he said, Who am I, O LORD GOD?  and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?"  It is humbling to think of all that God has done for us and where He has placed us at this time in our lives. It is amazing that God chooses to work through us. - John Mark Brothers

Proverbs 16:20 - "He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good and whoso trusteth in the Lord happy is he."  The sin we deny (pride, selfishness, what we want, how we look) when we handle a matter wisely, gives way to a trust in Christ that satisfies.  Grasp hold of good judgement, slowness to anger, and a humble spirit.  Handling your  problems wisely will become easier. -Jason Brothers

Philippians 2:3 - "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind, let each esteem other better than themselves." The Bible also tells us that "only by pride cometh contention." We need to check our hearts for pride and take upon ourselves, as Christ did, the form of a servant. - Daniel Holser

Proverbs 18:12 - "Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility." God give us a humble spirit today as we work and take care of our families. - John Mark Brothers

Matthew 26:75 - "And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which said unto him Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me twice.  And he went out and wept bitterly." Peter's failures before the crucifixion allowed him to be the help God wanted him to be at Pentecost and throughout the rest of his life.  God has a way of humbling us so that we depend solely on Him.  You can choose to humble yourself or God will choose to do so. If we will learn from it like Peter, the positive is that it will make us better Christians and a help to those in need. - Jason Brothers
