I do think we can be confident in the presence of God, but I also read that we are to put no confidence in the flesh. For me that means don't boast in the flesh thinking you are too mighty to never fall. The devil goes about seeking whom he can devour. I think he wants to make us ineffective. I also know that is says 6 things God hates, and number 2 is a proud look. James tells us to humble thyself in the sight of the Lord. So we just need to be careful, remain humble, but be bold! And for me like Paul, I will boast in the Lord. :-)

Good post! Blessings, Sheila
