Christian Devotional – June 17, 2012

VERSE:
Matthew 23:12–“Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.”

TRUTH:
What value do we place upon ourselves? What level of importance do we try to convince others that we have? We must recognize that only God is worthy of praise and if we seek to exalt ourselves, we will be humbled. If we are humbling ourselves before God, we will be exalted by Him.

RESPONSE:
Lord, I praise You and lift You up. You are the one worthy of exaltation. I will seek to make You known in all I do.

Be sure to check out Sundays with Kristi over on the Sisters in Cahoots page. We’ve been going through The Beatitudes and today we’re discussing what it means to “Hunger and Thirst.”
