"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."
1 Peter 5:6-7
This is another good reminder to be humble, which is hard for most of us I think, but supremely valuable to learn. The keys here are patience (allowing for God's timing in that exaltation), and trust (knowing that God cares for us and that things will work out). If we have those two things, then humility is easier, because we don't need to have our way now, or instead of God's way... his way is better than our way, and it will come in due time. Today, let's try to trust in God rather than just ourselves... as we learn to do so, our lives will improve, and we'll also be less stressed, because we'll have a clearer picture of what things are our responsibility and what things God will take care of, and we won't get those things mixed up so often. :)
