Humble Your Heart
My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me.—Psalm 131:1 (NIV)
Charles Spurgeon said that Psalm 131 was “one of the shortest psalms to read, but one of the longest to learn.” In the psalm, David tells us that pride causes stress. When we surrender and let go of things outside of man’s understanding or control, we turn to God with humble hearts and trust Him with the faith of a child.
Dear Lord, may I walk and grow with You every day of my life.
