Why do we fight, quarrel, and struggle so much in life? James 4 tells us it begins with desires that battle within us—desires that put ourselves at the center. Left unchecked, pride makes us believe everything should revolve around “me.” But there’s hope: God gives grace to the humble. Following Jesus means choosing humility as our posture toward God—submitting to Him instead of demanding our way, resisting the devil instead of acting on impulse, and drawing near to God instead of ignoring Him. This week, Eric reminded us that pride closes us off from God, but humility opens us up to His transforming grace. And when we posture ourselves with humility, we don’t just receive grace for ourselves—we reflect Jesus for the sake of others.
