Don't Get Cocky

So today in my life I got a little cocky. I'm not watching myself. That is not good. I'm not remembering the one reason why I'm here and why I have the talent I have. I make the mistake of being cocky and thinking I'm better , it will happen. But if I remember why I'm here I bring myself back to being a humble person of God. God talks in proverbs many times about being humble. He talks about how you don't need to be proud, but we are only human and we get that way. That's why God is always there to help us get though this crazy life.

WAYS TO BE HUMBLE:
1. Think of the reason why you are here.
When you think of the reason why you are here you remember that its not all about you and that comes with being cocky. You know you have a bigger purpose.
2. Don't give yourself compliments.
When you say to yourself "Hey I'm pretty good at that.", you tend to get a swelled head. God talks about all in His word about not being proud. If you are good at something other people will compliment you, you don't have to do it for yourself.
3. Pray.
I always say prayer because that is a vital part about being a christian that succeeds. Prayer is important and you need to do it all day not just once a day.
4. READ HIS WORD./Hear His word.You have to get into his word to understand right from wrong. If it feels wrong, God probably think it's wrong in his word. Go to church or hear messages. The more you hear the word and hear the word the more you will live the Word.
5.Get a friend to keep you accountable.
If you have a good friend. A good godly friend, get them to keep you from being cocky.

We all make mistakes, we all do something wrong. We are not perfect, but we have a God that is. Give any problems to God. He can handle anything.

God Bless!
