Pride
I want to break for God.
I went away for awhile because today i hurt a friend. So i decided to go talk to God at my favourite haunt.
God spoke on one topic. Pride.
It is the thing that corrupts me within, the issue that burns. The hunger from validation stemming from a proud character. One that craves to be noticed. And God wants to deal with it.
And i need to humble myself. My friendship is not a test i have to pass. I do not have to be a person who is right, who can teach, who knows. My friends do not test me to see if i am acceptable, good, A+. There is no grading in life.
Friendship is about being real to one another. At the end of the day, relationships is about realness and truth. It is about blessing others. About letting others fail and picking them up.
For my own ministry, God has reminded me. Hear their hearts. Hear their cries. Hear my people.
