Pride is a problem!
Think about that...write it down somewhere...never forget this...
Pride is a problem!
It is what got satan booted out of Heaven. In Isaiah 14:13-14 we read, "For you said to yourself, I will ascend to heaven and set my throne above God's stars. I will preside on the mountain of the gods far away in the north. I will climb to the highest heavens and be like the Most High.".
Pride is a problem!
Pride gets in the way of relationships. Relationships with our friends and family...our relatonship with the Lord. Pride causes us to focus on just one thing...ourselves!
Pride is a problem!
Proverbs 16:18, "Pride goes before destruction, and haughtiness before a fall."
Proverbs 11:2, "Pride leads to disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom."
James 4:6, "But he gives us even more grace to stand against such evil desires. As the Scriptures say, God opposes the proud but favors the humble."
If pride is a problem (and it is), then HUMILITY is to be our response. Give it a try.
Speaking from experience,

God created technology so hey...let's use it for His glory!
A simple note for today. Take a minute out of your busy life to focus on the goodness, greatness, and glory of God!
I love you all!!!
