Most know that pride is the root of all sin. "Pride comes before a fall." God hates pride. He detests it. "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." I was playing a Bible trivia game with my family and I found it interesting that some didn't know that verse.
What do you have pride about? Do you think of yourself as hot? Have you watched any movies lately? Because you know you aren't as hot as a lot of super hot people on the big screen.
Do you have pride in your money? You know there are 100's of billionaires alive today? Even if you managed to save 1 million, that is barely anything now.
Do you have pride in your house? It is probably messy and dirty so you should not have pride about that. ππ
Do you have pride in your intelligence? Any intelligence you have is directly from God so why be prideful about that?
Do you have pride over your nice clothes? They will be "out of style" in 6 months so pride in that is ridiculous.
Do you have pride over your nice smile? Ok that deserves some pride. It takes lots of work to keep a good smile. π
Overall pride is detrimental to you having a great life. If you are in love with yourself, you cannot properly love anyone else. You might think you are the best thing since sliced bread. π No one likes a person like that. Be humble. If you want others to like you, stay humble. God will bless you more and your life will go a lot better. π
