Psalm 131

Psalm 131: Something to do

1. Try to understand why God considers proud attitudes to be wrong. Some of these verses from the Book of Proverbs may help you: Proverbs 11:2; Proverbs 15:25; Proverbs 16:5; Proverbs 16:18; Proverbs 16:19; Proverbs 21:4; Proverbs 21:24; Proverbs 29:23. Use these verses to prepare a list of the things that are wrong with proud attitudes.

2. Read Mary’s Song, which many Christians call the Magnificat. It is in Luke 1:46-55. Find what it says about proud people and about humble people.
