Thursday, May 20, Pride

Pride comes at me in different ways. It has cost me in the past when I thought I was better than I really was. Pretty painful lesson and it not only affected me but my family. I sometimes get a feeling that I have been left out when I should have been included. This is pride. I have to turn this feeling over to God. Sometimes pride makes me feel that I need to be involved in a lot of different activities and this can lead to burn out or overload. It affects me and my family again. Pride and Motive go hand in hand. Why do I do what I do? For the attention? For God? For others? For myself? Father, help me to daily turn to you for guidance in my thoughts and activities so that I will bring honor and glory to you and not to myself.
