So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.

And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.

And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong—you want only what will give you pleasure.

You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.

How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.
