Pride is the result of our fallen and deceitful hearts, whereby we look to ourselves and others instead of our God and creator, to find significance, approval and love. Pride puts us in competition with others as we seek our own glory above others and turns our focus onto ourselves. It is based on an unrealistic view of who we really are, and who God really is. Humility is the ability to see the truth about ourselves and about God, and to act accordingly.

From Series: "Esther"

Esther is an amazing book of scripture (like all books of the Bible) that relates brilliantly to our lives today. The book never actually uses the name of God from front to back but the God’s providence and sovereign hand is seen throughout, if you are looking. Esther starts out at a party and ends with a new Jewish festival...in the end we will see why God should be praised. As people we do crazy things, but God is always to be trusted because His vision is sure and secure. Knowing God has all things in His hands should allow us to practically live our lives in his name every day. The book of Esther is about: alcohol, women, suspense, sex, evil guys, more evil guys, the good guys (who look a bit like evil guys), death, destruction, mayhem, intrigue, revenge, holidays, the Providence of God.
