We have so many advantages today that they can cause sensory overload, such as the new ways to communicate instantly that can detach us from the people we’re “talking” to.

Our world offers so many possibilities. All of them can be good, but they can also become distractions. Here is an example: sea turtle eggs. Female sea turtles swim to shore between May and August to dig nests in the sand and lay their eggs. Months later, the eggs hatch and the baby turtles follow the pure light of the moon back to the surf.

To begin… I asked ChatGPT this questions: Can you describe how pride is at the basis of all evil in the world?

And it provided me with these verbatim 4 points without going into any other detail…

How pride can lead to other forms of evil:

Pride says “my will matters most”

Pride resists correction

Pride creates division

Pride replaces worship of God with worship of self

And these are absolutely on point! Pride says,

“I can do it all on my own.”

“I don’t need anyone’s help.”

“I built this…”

“I did that…”

It’s refusing to acknowledge that God is in control, God is the maker and sustainer of all things, and that we are in complete dependence upon God. Without God, I can do nothing.

When we look at the life of Jesus, the Apostles, and many others in both the Old and New Testament who were leaders; several things come to the forefront regarding their character and conduct. Great leaders are not special in that they were particularly charismatic, good looking, intelligent or possessing great skill. Some did, most did not. Except for Jesus, none were sinless. All had some significant problems. They doubted, became angry, were morose, depressed, even ran away at times. They were mostly ordinary people, living ordinary lives, with one special exception. They were committed to a great cause.
