The Psalmist reminds us of the need for sinners to come before God with a "broken and contrite heart." (Ps.51:17) Our sinful pride often gets in the way and prevents us from responding to God and experiencing all His benefits.
The scripture tells of a man who needed to be broken. This proud man had an inflated view of himself and had allowed his heart to be filled with pride. So, God had to teach him a lesson in a most humbling & debilitating way. His name was Nebuchadnezzar, and his story is told in the Book of Daniel chapter 4.
