Prisoner To Pride

Prisoner To Pride This is my life and I am in control, who needs submission when I already have it all. Why would God bless me, with all these things. Just look around you, I'm living like a King. Who needs to repent, confess or obey? I have more than I need, and I don't even pray. Now God had been listening to this ungrateful display. and took all that he owned, and locked it all away. Then God said to him, "your a prisoner to your pride". When humility finds it's place, deep inside your heart it will free you from all the sin that festers from inside.

Wayne, nothing removes conceit like a walk through a cemetery.

Amen carlos, being purged of your pride is painful for those who take what the Lord does for them and ignores it.
