There is a definite distinction between having confidence and being arrogant. Sometimes we tend to think more highly of ourselves due to certain accomplishments in life. The completion of a Bachelor of Science or Masters Degree program, the purchase of a $200k home, a luxury vehicle or even a promotion call allow some to believe they are above reproach by those they deem less significant. While all those milestones are definitely applaud worthy, they do not put you in a special line for God's grace. Do not get me wrong God does know and want the best for you.
According to Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Remember until you break pride, you will not develop faith. And when you show all you have, that is all you are worth. God expects you to use your success to help others, not tear them down. Just in case you did not know arrogance is one of God's strong dislikes.
Be Blessed,
Lady 4.0
