One of the hardest sins to deal with at times can be pride. Pride can rip us apart and leave us feeling full of ourselves and then drop us to the lowest darkest places of humanity. Check out this quote from Benjamin Franklin regarding pride:

“There is perhaps no one of natural passions so hard to subdue as pride. Disguise it. Struggle with it. Stifle it. Mortify it as much as one pleases. It is still alive, and will every now and then peep out and show itself….Even if I could conceive that I had completely overcome it, I should probably be proud of my humility.

How have you let your pride get in the way of what God wants to do in your life lately?

What can you do to avoid that?
