Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who are trying to avoid being boastful. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Boastful attention-seekers are most often prideful.
Everything is about them and their interests. On social media self-promoters are constantly boasting.
Apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthian 13:4 (ESV) love and boasting are mutually exclusive.
”Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant.”
The phrase “love does not…boast” is a warning for those that have a problem with boastful behavior.
Stop. Think. What to self-promote? Do it in love. What needs to change, so love takes the place of boasting?
