Pride Comes Before A Fall: We All Need Jesus Because We Are All Messed Up

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. (Proverbs 16:18 KJV)

I learned something today. I have been prideful. I don't have it all together. I never will. So it's time that I show myself... The messed-up sixteen-year old that I am. I need Jesus. That's who I am. A messes up girl who needs Jesus.

I have been reading Jefferson Bethke's book Jesus>Religion. His wise words showed me that we are all messy. We've got to stop acting like we've got it all together. That's fake.

Jesus has called us to be REAL. Not perfect. Only He is perfect... Without spot or blemish. That's why we need Him.

Jesus, forgive me. I've messed up and I need YOU. You are who I need. I'm messed up, I need you. Forgive me of my sin and show me how to love like You love me. I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over every reader in Jesus name and I send angels to protect us in Jesus name. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
