Hi Dori. I think many times the Bible says the Lord gives grace to and lifts up the humble.

[Isaiah 57:15]:
15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

[Matthew 18:4]:
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

[Matthew 23:12]:
12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

[James 4:6]:
6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

[James 4:10]:
10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

I always enjoy a visit from you. xo PS Will be away from home for a few more days--leaving Clemmons NC and arriving in Gatlinburg tomorrow--and then I'll be home Wednesday night and will catch up at the forums.
