DAY 17

Pride is the soil where all other sin takes root.

Pride, on the surface, seems like a “harmless” sin. In fact, we often don’t even think of it as a sin, but it is dangerous indeed. Pride is the primary cause of divorce. Pride is the whisper in our ear that seduces us into believing that our way is always the best way and being “right” is more important than being loving. Pride is the enemy of love. Choose humility instead. Humility doesn’t mean you lack confidence or courage; it simply means you’re led by love instead of selfishness.

“Pride goes before destruction, and haughtiness before a fall.” Proverbs 16:18 (NLT)

Would my spouse consider me to be filled with pride or filled with humility?
