I...I also struggle with the word "pride". I hardly ever use the word, and I think that's because I have these negative reactions to it (from other people throwing it around too loosely). God calls us to be humble, and for me that means never being proud of something, but thankful and gracious.

The bible does warn us of being prideful, it is a hard thing to overcome when we live in a society that tells us to "toot our own horn" (relating to work and promotions and things). Perhaps we should say I love my children or I love you, more often than I am proud of you. Then the people around us know they are loved and not for what they do. I need to work on this.<br />I pray that God will bless you both as He did in bringing you together. I waited until 26 for my special someone and I felt hurt often when my friends who were married boosted of their situation. I never thought I would be married let alone have children one day. <br />Praying for you today<br />for peace and love <br />ChristineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
