COT:
Much of the world today celebrates pride during the month of June. Besides the particular context of this month, pride is often seen as a good attribute. We are proud of our children’s accomplishments. We are proud to be an American! We take pride in our work. These all sound pretty harmless and are not necessarily about ourselves. However, a small twist in the words makes these much different. “My children are better than yours”. “My country is better than yours.” “I am better at my job than you are, or I have a better job than you do.” Though pride is celebrated by many, it is condemned by God.
‭Proverbs 16:5 NASB1995‬
[5] Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord; Assuredly, he will not be unpunished.
‭Proverbs 16:18 NASB1995‬
[18] Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.
‭1 John 2:15-16 NASB1995‬
[15] Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
Use these words of God to guide our hearts when it comes to pride. Don’t let it destroy lives and don’t let it separate you from God.

COT:
Doing a lot of traveling to visit my team at other sites, it validated to me that there is a lot more behind the scenes than our perceptions may have. We often jump to conclusions and need to remember to ask people questions and consider what you can do to help them. This plays out in our daily lives as we interact with coworkers, family, friends…but for me it’s my son. It’s hard not to judge the actions of a teenager but talking with him has brought out soo much that I would have improperly assumed otherwise. Be intentional to connect with people and not derive your own perception of other people actions and intentions.

“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭7‬ ‭ESV‬‬

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:I don’t know about you, but I tend to not think enough about how blessed I am. There is so much to be thankful for: our families, our friends, our jobs, or F3 brothers! There are many in this world that do not share the same blessings in life. We need to be thankful!
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NASB1995
“[16] Rejoice always; [17] pray without ceasing; [18] in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
We need to be thankful in all things.
Ephesians 1:3-5 NASB1995
“[3] Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, [4] just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love [5] He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will,”
God has blessed us with access to immeasurable spiritual blessings through His Son.
James 1:17 NASB1995
“[17] Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.”
Let’s remember to give thanks to God for what we have!
