Pride

When all goes well and I feel strong,
Oh, help me, Lord, to see 
that I must place my confidence
In YOU and not in me.- Anon
pride is the root of all great mistakes...
pride will blind us of looking more option and alternative..
pride make us so confidence about ourselves that we can do anything with our own strength..
It's dangerous when one develop pride in his heart, and believe that he can do anything in the world..
When we are success in doing something, by human nature we will give credit of ourselves and proud of ourselves..
It's not wrong to happy about your achievement, but the problem comes when you give the credit to ourselves...
Pride deceive us that we are our own master...
We forget that all this is given by the ONE who give you life, give you everything, including your success....

We are so fragile that we will be trap by pride...more often we feel good about believing ourselves that we can do anything without somebody help..
Here the problem come, the desire of feeling good often lead us to forget God's grace...
We will do thing that is not pleasing to Him and exclude Him from our life..
and slowly, you will be lead to a valley by our pride...

Element to defeat pride is Humble. 
Die to yourself and be humble..
Pride will lead you to the darkness...
Humility will lead to the light and glory of God...
