Cure for Hubris

Where would we be without our pride? I don’t know, maybe…healthy? Longer life? Better living conditions? A world in better shape? How about a strong desire to truly KNOW God?  Couldn’t hurt!  -g.w.

Retired and On sabbatical (again, but not quite). More info available in 'About Me' on my site page.(There is a small square box with three little dots inside, on the upper right hand side of every blog page,at the right side of title banner. Click on those dots to take you to a "hidden" site page with more info provided by me, including "follow" button and "About me." I didn't design this thing.It came as-is.)Also WP has a mandatory banner at the bottom of the screen about privacy and cookies policy that blocks the visibility of a "follow" button that pops up under a "close and accept' of the privacy agreement. You have to click the 'close and accept to see the follow button. Things are becoming more complicated to navigation with hidden activations and complex instructions. Life and technology is like that. If something seems simple you're probably doing it wrong. But I'm left-handed so maybe it's just me.

  2. I have often thought of the irrational cost, strength, deception of perception and our proud humility holding us away from God. All roads that lead to becoming foundationally humble bump along to the foot of the cross. I am quite sure I can hardly begin to fathom all that happens within us to be “Crucified with Christ” so that “It is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me”. How ironic that pride ends up hurting more than humility.

    1. Very well said, Gary, my friend. Very well said, indeed! “deception of perception.” How deceived I can be by what I THINK I perceive. Lord have mercy! And remember I am dust but for You!
