It's hard sometimes to look at yourself and truely examine the attributes of your character.
How long do we live with demons on our backs and angels in our eyes?
There's a hebrew word for pride that is translated as "a snare".
I believe that to be a very just representation of the nature of pride.
Oh how it comes and holds tight, yet we don't even see it.
If it weren't for God forcing me to face it, i never would have realized it.
A greek word for pride is "to envelop with smoke; obscure; blind".
we begin to create in ourselves as well as other a false expectation of our own skill and ability to which we can not live up to and will inevitably lead to our own fall and disgrace.
just a thought i suppose. a lesson i had to learn.
Life is weird sometimes.
it just is.
We can never fully know what to expect.
I got a rough idea of how the next couple years will look but day by day i am surprised at what happens.
"Man plans his course in his heart; but God guides his steps"
wish i could tell you where that scripture was....psalms somewhere.
I have a crazy uncertain life ahead of me. But I have an awesome constant assurance that I will always be ok. Faith leads me on. His presence guides me.
