Rid Yourself of Pride

There is little more destructive than pride. Scripture is replete with admonishments about the dangers of pride. Scripture says, “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom” (Proverbs 11:22). Pride always leads to foolish actions, thoughtless comments and destructive choices. Wisdom, on the other hand, leads to healthy choices and blessings. As tempting as it is to walk in pride, be careful. Choose the way of the wise—humility.
