Pride, a sure path to destruction. Pride is the sleeping dragon that once awakened will extinguish the love of God within us. It is the false confidence we feel about ourselves that consumes peace, love, and charity. Pride is the reflection of Satan we see every time we look into a mirror and behold how wonderful we've become. The Lord detests all the proud of heart.
Pride is an emotion that is extremely difficult to understand.
It is how we feel each time we succeed, acquire, or behold. Society counts pride as an attribute, however, God considers pride the first step towards eternal doom. Pride is that puffed up feeling of accomplishment we enjoy for our achievements, status, wealth, position, intelligence, appearance, and sadly, even our spiritually. Nothing, as long as that pride is not in yourself. Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor.
