I have never struggled with pride, but instead have found my struggle to be a perversion of pride, self doubt and fear, not that I have no self confidence at all but I hesitate because of fear and doubt in myself. A wise person once told me thought that it comes down to a lack of faith in Christ and his ability to work through me. From that persepctive I have been able to surrender more and cast aside doubt and fear.the Kimberlinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497236873014353020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-49264198405677155.post-28343770947899436782009-04-13T15:37:00.000-05:002009-04-13T15:37:00.000-05:00I hear ya brother.

Prior to that it was actually my pride that fueled much of what I considered "my work for the Lord". That frame of mind really sums up my life long problem of being focused on me and my instead of on God. <BR/>Adding to the concept of owning our faults, It recently occured to me that probably the reason we are instructed to confess our sins to one another is for the sake of humility. After all we can't forgive each others sins and the blood of Christ has already covered them. Shouldn't we all be on our knees at the front of the Church everytime the invitation is given? Not for the forgiveness of our sins but rather in order to humble ourselves before God and the body.Robnoreply@blogger.com
