The Arrogant should tremble

Romans 11

 ¹⁷ If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, ¹⁸ do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. ¹⁹ You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.” ²⁰ Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but tremble. ²¹ For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.

Rich Mullins has a song that helps us realize we need God!

I have had so many times in my life where I thought I was invincible, only to come crashing to Earth. Christians are just as arrogant, maybe more, than non-christians. Somehow we take God's promise and take that to mean WE are untouchable. Our Arrogance can really get us into trouble. God brings us to our senses. All the gifts and blessings we have are from the GRACE of God. They are not by our own power. They are not because of our great works! We must remain humble and pray for God's strength through all times. When things are going great and we feel invincible we need to praise God for his blessings and his wonderful Grace.
