God’s Grace vs. Man’s Pride

Proverbs 11:2 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.

The story of Noah’s Ark is something that most Christians and Bible Readers would know about. Often told to toddlers at bedtime and taught regularly in the Sunday School, the story often highlights’ God’s saving grace because of one person, in the city where sin and destruction were a daily occurrence. Noah was not a perfect man, yet God chose to save his family from destruction. That’s the beauty of God’s grace! “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord” (Gen 6:8).

Yet, the biggest grace that the Lord gave us was that of salvation through the Holy Cross and the blessing of the Holy Spirit to guide us.

For those of us who have yet to still believe in humility and the power of Grace; instead depend on the pride of man, all I can say is open your eyes and look around. You would be surprised at the miracles that we often take for granted in our daily life. The humility of God’s Grace has always withstood the test of time, but man’s pride often falleth many.
