Pride

Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Pride causes alot of downfalls. Yes even companies can be liquidated (poof gone!) because of it's arrogant rulers (hoho which is shown in my case study about Peregrine Investment). True story! The owners were proud, brash and arrogant and the successful company was in the end reduce to nothing.

Sigh... what have you got to be prideful of? If it wasnt for God allowing good things/abilities/strength to come to you, then you would be an absolute nothing. We are all nothings except what God gives us/ allow us to have and make us to be.

So cast down your pride and humble yourself before God. Even though it was painful to be humbled by God, I believe that in the end, it was worth it because I know now that I know the true meaning of being humble (ok, I have more to learn?) and have a heart for people (instead of thinking I'm better than 'some' people). Thank you for teaching me!

Bottomline: I just feel pityful for him that God will humble. May Grace be with you as well.
