Bible quote

-

But he gives all the more grace; therefore it says, ‘‘God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.’’ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:6-7

Grace; the favour of God, if we needed anything we need God’s favour. Humility draws his favour buts it’s counter intuitive. Fantastic accomplish­ments, the accumulati­on of wealth, and status in the community mean little to God. Rather favour comes with an attitude that asks for his help, and a conscious decision to resist temptation.
