1Pt5

If you feel like God is resisting you, check your motives. Do you want God for Him? Or do you want God for you?

A proud person seeks God for their own selfish ends. They want God to make their life better. God exist for them, they don't exist for God. This is the heights of pride! Pride is nothing more than focusing on self! This is the type of person God resists!!

On the other hand, "God gives grace to the humble." Humble people see themselves as God's servants. They seek God for His glory and they desire to see Him exalted. Humble people want the best for others. They rejoice in the success of others more than their own selfish ambition.

The posture we have with God has everything to do with His response to us. Let's examine our hearts today.
