Pride forms a barrier between us and growth. When we believe we have all the answers, we create no space to receive new wisdom or healing. This spiritual principle appears throughout Scripture - God exalts the humble but resists the proud. Why? Because humility acknowledges our need for something beyond ourselves.
Jesus consistently bypassed religious elites to fellowship with society's outcasts. When questioned about dining with "sinners," His response was profoundly simple: "Those who are well have no need for a physician." Only those who recognize their sickness seek healing. During Holy Week, we're reminded how Jesus entered Jerusalem on a humble donkey. The common people recognized Him while religious authorities questioned His authority, unable to see God's work because it didn't conform to their expectations.
Many of us struggle with the idea of submission because those in authority over us, who were supposed to protect us, hurt us. When those meant to protect us cause harm instead, walls form. We associate submission with control rather than its true purpose: receiving protection, wisdom, and growth from those further along the journey. God never forces submission - He guides and instructs while preserving our freedom to choose. True authority serves rather than dominates.
The most extraordinary miracles often aren't physical but internal - deep healing of wounded hearts that transforms victims into vessels of healing for others. This restoration begins with humility to admit we need help and continues as we forgive what we cannot forget. Your healing journey isn't just for you; your testimony builds faith in others that their wounds aren't beyond God's reach.
Are you struggling with trusting authority? Has pride built walls that keep even God at a distance? Consider how humbling yourself might create space for the healing and growth you've been seeking. Your breakthrough may be just one prayer away: "Lord, help me."
