Christian Devotional – December 6, 2010

VERSE:
Genesis 11:4a–They said, ‘Come let us build for ourselves a city and a tower whose top will reach into heaven and let us make for ourselves a name.

TRUTH:
What was the sin at the tower of Babel? Pride, the desire to make oneself great and honor oneself above God. Do we desire to make ourselves seem great, or to glorify God?

RESPONSE:
Lord, help me to always seek Your glory over anything else that I do.
