Questions

1. How much do we walk around feeling proud, full of our own EGO? How often do we feel that we are right about something, and others are wrong? That we are doing something right, and they aren’t?

2. So, like the people Paul was speaking to…Are we more concerned with what we think. So sure about our opinions, our wisdom or ideas. Are we so well educated that we base our thoughts and opinions on our qualifications, degrees or work experience, church experience even rather than the word of God?

3. Are we also constantly worrying about what people think about us? Even those close to us I would dare to add? I would say most of us do, and especially those close to us. Church is a place where this can be an unhealthy dynamic. Do we care more about what others think of us than God does?
