8-2-20 Overcoming pride with humility
We all struggle with pride but we can't be like Jesus if we are filled with pride.
Paul wrote in his letter to the Philippians "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves"
God doesn't want us to be prideful and self-centered but to be God centered and have humility in everything we do and have.
God doesn't care about what we have but what we do with what we have.
It is sometimes ok to be excited about what we have but it becomes prideful when we continue to harp on it.
