JUNE 25 – PRIDE

6/25 Romans 1:19-21
For the truth about God is known to them instinctively. God has put this knowledge in their hearts. From the time the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky and all that God made. They can clearly see his invisible qualities — his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing God. Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. The result was that their minds became dark and confused.
PRIDE
Sin blinds us to the Lord. Pride calls to us to follow our own way and continue in sin. We want our way. We believe in ourselves. A life built on pride overrun by sin is a life that will perish. Tragedy is the eternal result.
