lately ive been struggling with pride. when i say lately, in this case, i mean for the last 24 years of my life. pride has led me to treat people poorly, take people for granted, make bad decisions, ruin friendships and most recently i have come to realize how it has impacted my relationship with God. i am too proud to rely on him, to see the wonder and otherness that God is, and to put aside my wants and needs for those of others.
its hard for me to admit when im wrong, and even harder to break a poor personal trait, such as this, that has become something of an awful habit.
i have reduced my relationship with God to mathematical formulas and answers to all the questions. my pride has prevented me from being lost in wonder and truly fearing the God of the universe.
its something im working on...
