I am humbled

I am not invincible. I am not immune to poison ivy.
Due to a long history of roaming the woods barefoot without any reaction to poison ivy, I was foolishly bragging to my family (on Memorial Day) that I am immune to it. Now, two weeks later, I am scratching like crazy and trying to find a good cream.
It is humbling to see the manifestation of my sinful thinking in a situation as silly as poison ivy. I was foolishly and somewhat jokingly proud of my supposed immunity, but I was proud nonetheless. God resists the proud.
