Pride and humility


My son Dewi wanted to put up some shelves one night and the screws we had weren't very good so we tried some others. I said to Dewi I think they are a bit proud, meaning the heads were sticking out rather. He hadn't heard the word used like that. I learned it from my dad. Pride is sticking your head out, I guess. If we want to maintain unity as Christians, we need to learn to keep low. 
Are you humble? It's a tough one. If you say “yes” you are probably not. Somebody once said that humility is something you should always pray for but that you can never give thanks for having received!
