"Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom." Proverbs 13:10
Contention means 'literally quarrel, strife; properly, a readiness to quarrel (having a contentious spirit), affection for dispute.' ~ Strongs Concordance
"Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts." Proverbs 21:2
Is it any wonder why God Almighty hates pride!? Look around y'all, its everywhere!
However, there's hope in the 2nd part of the 1st verse... "but with the well advised is wisdom." Where's the best place for advice, but by the Word of God!
If we are truly walking with Him, we will seek His advise and take counsel from Him. Its here hope is restored because we aren't focused through the lenses of self or pride!
I dont know about y'all but I sure find this refreshing! Where do you turn in the midst of adversity?
