We are taught from childhood to be proud of our accomplishments. Because we did it by ourselves. Our self worth is based upon our accomplishments. I have found over the years, that some people will put down or suppress others so they can feel superior. Which is the wrong kind of pride. It took years before I came to Jesus because I could do it myself. It was only when I crashed and burned, did I make room for Jesus. Then I found the most loving Father and older Brother and Holy Ghost in this world. Why do people respond to love? Because it is humble. Humility makes people feel safe. There is no threat in humble love and they wouldn’t get hurt. In Proverbs 16:19, it says, “Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.” (KJV).
