Proverbs 16:18 reminds us as humility goes before honor, “pride goes before a fall.” Ever wonder why churches are powerful in one generation but empty the next? The Bible says, the Lord will tear down the house of the proud. God hates arrogance. He hates it because we haven’t done anything to be arrogant about. Is there a Pulitzer for ink? Can you imagine a scalpel growing smug after a successful heart transplant? Of course not. They are only tools. So are we. We may be the canvas, the paper, or the scalpel, but we are not the one who deserve the applause.~Max Lucado~ When Jesus made His triumphal entry into Jerusalem days befor His arrest and crucifixion, some of the people there waved palm branches to honor him as he passed. Do you suppose the ass (the donkey) Jesus rode on thought the accolades were for him? Do you think they were saying Holy Holy Holy to a donkey.
