What the Bible Says About Pride

Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.”

Proverbs 11:2 “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.”

Proverbs 29:23 “One’s pride will bring him low, but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.”

Simone Weil on Illness

If we are suffering illness, poverty, or misfortune, we think we shall be satisfied on the day it ceases. But there too, we know it is false; so soon as one has got used to not suffering one wants something else.

Catherine O’Hara on Family

I’m pretty much a good Catholic girl at heart and I believe in family. I also have a basic belief that God takes care of me. I believe in prayer, even though I’m not that religious. I just have that foundation from my family. I mean when you think that you’re just a human being and one of God’s creatures, you can’t take anything that seriously.

Happy Family Day to all my Albertan readers!
