The layers we must shed are ever present. We never really finish. It is only important that we know they are there and hold them up to a loving Christ to take them from us.
A lot of pride that needs to fall... I think that's true for almost everybody. Pride is truly at the root of almost every sin. It's part of our nature and to deny our sinful self takes much disciple. But God calls us to do it and I commend you for acknowledging your pride and doing something about it.
oooooh slipping out of that layer of pride is so hard. is it necessary to lose all of it??? i try to maintain a reasonable amount of pride, it is important for me and still doable. there have been too many times in my life where i was not really able, i had to dig deep. i find it is more about loving yourself, the creation that you are, and the many things you have done with pride!! sending you some love!!
Lord You don’t My accomplishment You want My obedience A trust Without condition I could try And give You the world Then I Remember It’s yours The purest love Requires Not grand gestures And public audiences But quiet resolve To be The best Ambassador For the Kingdom
