We need to be careful with pride. Pride makes us think we are better than other people. The proud do not submit to God because they think their own way is better. But in the end he will find that God's way is perfect and he will be humbled.

Our pride must be in God. It is God who helps us succeed; it is God who gives us talents and wisdom. When we understand that everything comes from God, we will have a balanced view of our successes, without excessive pride.

Man's pride humbles him,

but the humble in spirit obtains honor.

the haughty spirit, before the fall.

because it is these things that I like",
