From humility to glory


The joy of the heart can be seen in your eyes. Also a wise and honored life is the result of listening to good advice, self-discipline, and being humble. Everything starts with recognizing and respecting the God of the Universe. The Fear-of-God makes you humble and wise. It educates you through your walk to glory.

A twinkle in the eye means joy in the heart,
   and good news makes you feel fit as a fiddle.
31 Listen to good advice if you want to live well,
   an honored guest among wise men and women.
32 An undisciplined, self-willed life is puny;
   an obedient, God-willed life is spacious.
33 Fear-of-God is a school in skilled living—
   first you learn humility, then you experience glory.
(Prov.15:30-33 MSG)

Prayer: Oh God, You are the joy of my heart. Make me receptive to good advice and wise talking. I want to discipline myself to be obedient and humble. I want to eliminate all the barriers in my life to allow You to express Yourself freely.
