Is it just me or everyone struggle with the sin of pride? I am thankful that Holy Spirit is helping me see my shortcomings.. At the same time, I am feeling bad that am not making any improvements in that area.. Some areas which I need Holy Spirit to help me
Pride at work - Pride that God has given me more knowledge than others. Pride that I am able to accomplish so much. Pride that I am able to others when they are not able to manage things on their own
Pride when someone appreciates - this happens everywhere
Pride of being humble - When someone says I am so down the earth, pride steps in.
Pride of knowing scriptures - When my wife says I just answered her question, inside I get a feeling that I know a little more than her
On many of the above, people are just trying to be nice with me. But pride just steps in everytime. Am I beating myself too much or this is reality? How can I overcome? I know, I cannot overcome this problem on my own. How do I even approach seeking help from Holy Spirit? Has anyone successfully been able to make positive progress in overcoming pride?
