Do without boasting

S: Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.

Proverbs 27:1

O/A: Plans change and peoples expectations change as well. Since life is fickle I need to be aware of the possibilities of what I claim in the future might not come into fruition. I have often times claimed I will complete something only to lose interest or go another way. When I boast and change courses, not I only am I  losing face, but credibility to the people I made large claims to. I believe certain things should be confided as to be kept accountable, not all things are meant to be shared as boasting. God is telling me to share the weaknesses, keep on to what should is considered building up one's self . Paul states boast only about what christ has done in your life and nothing else.

P: Thank you God for giving me an applicable verse today. It is true that I shouldn't have pride in myself, but only in you christ. Jesus help me to be more humble like you. Help me to have the heart like paul and hold onto the nothing except the glory which is knowing you intimately.
In Jesus name
Amen
