Wanting to be God

Pride

Years ago when my five-year-old grandson was in a kindergarten class near Sioux City, Iowa, when the teacher asked, “Who would you like to be when you grow up?”

Instinctively, my grandson blurted out, “I wanted to be God!”

He may have been simply acting smart, but did he not spontaneously speak the mind of humanity? We want to be God, make our own rules, call the shots and be top dog.
–Wayne Allman, Goldsboro, North Carolina

Humility, Pride

Phillips Brooks, known through the English-speaking world in the 19th century as “a prince of preachers,” and who wrote the Christmas carol, “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” once said, “The true way to be humble is not to stoop until you are smaller than yourself, but to stand at your real height against some higher nature that will show you what the real smallness of your greatness is.”
