I do this thing… It's a thing I think a lot of people do.
When someone offers to give me something, or buy me something, or lend me a hand,I typically refuse.
Why?
I'm prideful.
I don't want to be.
I don't mean to be.
But I am prideful.
So I asked myself, "How does one get over this issue of Too Much Pride?"
One word.
PRAY!
And that's what I have been doing. With every prayer I throw up, God throws a boulder down. A pride breaking boulder. He takes my prayer, rolls it up into a *Lion King Reference* pride (breaking) rock, and throws them at my Pride Wall. With each blow, my pride lessens.
It's been a struggle. A long, hard journey. A trek along a bumpy road. But it's been worth it.
Breaking down walls is hard if you don't ask for help.
God makes life possible. Pride free.
That is my ultimate goal.
