Pride keeps us on the wrong side of life....
He helps us to see the worst in others, while he blurs the reality of our imperfection....
He is a big lie that makes us feel like the greatest when we are really nothing to boast of....
He is one spirit that knocks Angels down from heaven....
Even the devil, who was referred to as perfect in all his ways in the scriptures, became a liar and lost
all his beauty to Pride....
Pride kills the rich, and blinds them from the truth of God....
He blinds the religious from the perfect righteousness of God, and traps them in self righteousness....
He leaves the sick in their infirmities, and holds sinners bondage in their iniquities....
He turns the wise to foolishness, and the sinners from righteousness....
Pride comes before a fall, and a Prideful man never stands, neither can he fulfill his call....
Humility is a virtue in the Holy divinity of God....
The Spirit of God is a Gentle Spirit, and the Son is just as the Father is....
Humility calls the poor to ride on horses, and the rich to eternal life....
He brings the lost sheep back to the path of the Shepherd....
He calls sinners to repentance, and opens our eyes to our imperfection....
True humility in spirit wins the heart of God....
Humility profits the soul, but Pride destroys it....
For whosoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
Matthew 23vs12
