Prodigal: He ain’t done a nary thing in this game.

Me: Don’t push yourself up to far and put someone else down.

This is from the book Soul Winner by C.H. Spurgeon

Some men who have not had humility have been sent adrift from the ministry, for the Lord will not use those who will not ascribe the honor entirely to Him. Humility is one of the chief qualifications for usefulness. Many have passed away from the roll of useful men because they have been lifted up with pride, and so have fallen into “the snare of the devil”(1 Timothy 3:7).

Now you know what you are dealing with. You know the heart, and you know where evil has deceived. Make decisions based on this knowledge from God today.

Isaiah 43:2

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.
