Pride! It's a hideous thing to our Christian life. In fact, it's a hideous thing to any life. We can all be affected by it if we are not careful. Of the 7 things the Lord hates in Pro 6:16-19, the first one that is mentioned is "haughty eyes". This is pride in the proverbial sense. Pride can "eat our lunch" spiritually, mentally, emotionally and of course, spiritually. We all have to deal with it, but we certainly don't have to hang on to it. We must face it, confess it and ask God to deliver us from it. As the Apostle James reminds us "God opposes the proud, but give grace to the humble". What a beautiful promise to all of us.....God gives us tons of His grace when we walk in humility.
