Poverty and affliction

   ~ ~ ~ ~

(Richard Sibbes)

"Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I obey Your word." Psalm 119:67

"It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn Your decrees." Psalm 119:71

Poverty and affliction take away the fuel which feeds pride!

"I know, O LORD, that Your laws are righteous, and in faithfulness You have afflicted me." Psalm 119:75
