Proverbs 16- Pride & Lies

“All a person’s ways seem right to him, but the Lord weighs motives. 

Commit your activities to the Lord, and your plans will be established. 

Everyone with a proud heart is detestable to the Lord; be assured, he will not go unpunished. 

Righteous lips are a king’s delight, and he loves one who speaks honestly.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16‬:‭2‬-‭3‬, ‭5‬, ‭13‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

Lord, purify my motives…allow my heart to recognize when pride is driving me or I am twisting truth to get my way.  Give me faith to trust that You are at work and will use every situation to purify me and glorify Jesus!
