But I think "pride" in the sinful sense is that thing that causes us to fail through stubbornness. <br /><br />My Daddy always told me, "Pride will put you in the poorhouse."

I grew up with very little, but I never envied my peers who had more. I may have been amazed at some of the things they had, but I was happy they had them and never felt jealous or covetous.

I've got to learn to be more moderate in my diet.Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08483309441288822407noreply@blogger.com
