“… be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.” 1 Peter‬ ‭5:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬. Everyone with even the slightest degree of spiritual knowledge understands that we desperately need God’s grace. We thank and praise Him for His grace. We sing songs and preach sermons about God’s marvelous grace. Many books have been written about it. But it seems that few truly understand how our lives become open to God’s grace. It is not by believing in some religious doctrines. It is not by simply believing in Jesus and what He did. God tells us here that His grace comes to those who are humble. This is so important that God says our very lives need to be clothed with humility and if pride is in us, God will actually resist us. It is sad, in these deceptive days we are living, that most people imagine they can come to God and receive His grace, all while they are puffed up with pride. Even as they proclaim “Grace” many churches and pulpits are filled with the very thing that God despises, which is pride. Let us be those humble souls, who come and bow at Jesus’ feet, knowing our own unworthiness. And may the humility of Christ so completely clothe us, that others will see in us, the ‘Meek and Lowly Galilean’. And with His humility adorning our lives, God’s grace will overflow in our hearts.
