Devotion – Proverbs 22

S – Humility, the fear of the Lord, results in wealth, honor, and life.

 Proverbs 22:4 CSB

O – The fear of the Lord is based in respect and honor for God.  Humility is knowing you are not the focal point of all that is going on.  They work together.  The result is abundance, honor and we are truly alive.

A – Interesting that less of me and more of God results in more than expected in goods, wealth, resources…respect, elevation in position, value by others…meaning, purpose, and all in perspective.

The things we want the deepest start with our view of God.  And doing this while elevating Him and keeping a healthy perspective of ourselves.

R – Lord, help me to do this today.
