Better to be lowly in spirit and among the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud.......
- Proverbs 16:19 -
Thoughts on This Verse... What is your source of significance? This proverb challenges us to view the world upside down to the rest of culture. Humility and association with the lowly and oppressed are valued by God. Abusive power and arrogance are not. God didn't just give us this proverb; he sent us his Son to demonstrate it. Now if we can only learn to live it. Ah! But Jesus does give us the opportunity to demonstrate it when he says,''Follow me!'' (cf. John 13)
**Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path**
