about love and pride

Love dissolves the ego. Love melts down all the selfish underpinnings that cause pride to form in us. In love, we come to understand that position, power, authority, and things are of no value. In love, we come to understand that only Christ is of value. In love, we are not stuck up because we are willing to take a lesser road or a lesser position. When God's power of love comes over a person's life, all the things of earth, the things we think are so important, pass away. Love does not have time for pride because love is too busy helping others, supporting others, and glorifying God in all that is said and done.
