So God, in His infinite wisdom, had an answer waiting for me in Proverbs 29. Well, actually several answers.
verse 1: He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck,
Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
verse 23: A man's pride will bring him low,
But the humble in spirit will retain honor.
'Nuff said. Moral of the story is, if I CHOOSE humility, I don't have to be humbled. And I won't be suddenly destroyed without remedy. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me.
In all honesty, after reading Proverbs 29, I was so ashamed of myself that I just wanted to delete the post so no one would know of my shame. But I think I'll keep it. Like I said, this is a journal of growth.
