“Be content with who you are, and don’t put on airs. God’s strong hand is on you; he’ll promote you at the right time.
At times, the human mind wants to jump in and promote itself, build itself up in the eyes of others, be sure everyone knows how great it is and seek out accolades to prop up its ego. But this isn’t necessary. God always knows best. God will promote the worthy worker to receive his rightful due.
Wonderful timing!! I used to believe promotion came from hard work and earning my rightful dues My trust was in the system and I had inverted the law of Being. But I believe I have come to understand that “promotion” to position or celebrity status is only part of our growth – opening wider fields . Just another step along the path in our fuller expression of Spirit. When I think about it – how could Spirit promote itself above itself??!!
What a beautiful translation of this Bible verse – I so much appreciate this. Thank you, Evan!
