Pride Denied
by Deborah Ann Belka The Lord took and stripped away my selfish pride until I stood naked before Him and had nothing left to hide. I saw for the first time, just how arrogant I really was caring more about my own success and doing what a vain person does. I realized in my heart, the proud women I became and as He pointed out my conceit I felt the sting of my own shame I never really knew, how much love for me, I wrought until He laid my life before me and I saw the smugness that I brought. I was content in my complacency, and never saw though my mistakes but He showed me my true intentions and how high to Him, were the stakes. Nothing could discourage me, and my pride I did deny but He prove to me that I was caught in the web of Satan's lie. For self-righteousness has no part, in a Christian's way of life it only brings about ego's delusions and causes the double-minded strife!
