Humble yourselves in the sight of God. James 4:10

Two goats, going in opposite directions, met on a narrow bridge. Neither one would back off to let the other go by. That meant they were both blocked from going on their way.

First, they fought until their heads ached. Finally, one lay down and the other stepped over, which allowed both to travel on.

Sometimes, we have to do things we didn't plan for and don't even like much. But God always rewards humble obedience to Him. In fact, He promises that if we humble ourselves before Him, He will honour us.

Prayer: Lord, help me to do what You want me to do. Amen.
