God has strange ways to accomplish something. His timing, His purpose, and the people He chooses to accomplish something is beyond human comprehension!

John 15:15– “Jesus is a friend of believers…”

LORD, I seek forgiveness for overlooking the biblical significance of being Proud of Jesus! Rick Warren

➢ …because no one could maintain Christian or Catholic faith or claim to be a ‘Believer’ without being PROUD of Jesus and His Gospel.

Luke 9:26 – “Whoever is ashamed of me and my words…”

I pray that church leaders would consider it as a divine duty to begin reminding believers to be PROUD of Jesus and His Gospel. Rick Warren

Historically, church leaders were reluctant to remind parishioners to be PROUD of Jesus because of the centuries-old belief that being Prideful or Boastful is always a deadly sin!

Corinthians 1:31 – “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord…”

…because Jesus is beyond love!

Love doesn’t necessarily breed Pride but Pride breeds love!
