The Daily Dose of God June 10

Memory Verse; For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23

Mark 8:22-9:29, Proverbs 3:1-35

Empathy is like vertigo.   Fredrik Backman, Anxious People

Gracious Father, 

Deliver your people from arrogance and pride. May we not quickly judge others' motives harshly or impose upon them our own thoughts and feelings. Protect us from falling in the way of false humility which seeks approval through empty words. Give us the sincerity of spirit and the mind of Christ. Make us savvy to Satan's footholds so we do not give place to him.  Increase our love for You so we protect pure thoughts, wise considerations, and clean motives. Every day may we be found farther away from what we once were while experiencing the increase of Your likeness. Just as You are wise,  patient, forgiving, and just, so let us be. We would be exalted by You in due time rather than lose our souls in any attempt at self-exaltation. Christ humbled Himself for our sakes; may His humility be embodied beautifully in Your people. For when we are humble before You,  Your power is strong in us. In the Name of Christ, amen. (AdahHutchcraft)
