Legacy of Elijah [LoE] - Proud Grandfather
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18 (NIV)

Pride in self will bring anyone down. There is a place for healthy self-esteem and self-worth, but way too often we have an exaggerated belief in our own abilities to handle this life all by ourselves...that's the kind of pride that will bring us down.
 
Thank you for the reminder. In our society self worth easily gets blown out of proportion into puffed up pride. Worst song ever? Sinatra's "I did It My Way".
 
America today is in trouble because of this verse. Too many people go through life thinking they are owed something. The ironic thing is they are...
eternity in hell is what everyone deserves.

Pray we keep our focus on the cross and not ourselves.
