The creation began to think
he knew more than the Creator.
He began to believe
his plans were better…
his goals higher…
his thoughts loftier…
his ways truer.
The creation began to believe
he was the creator.
He began to worship self.
Everything he did
or would ever do
was for self.
Self was his god.
Self was his all.
Self became his master…
and the rest is chaos.

And look where our pride and need to control has led us. Will we ever learn?

No kidding! Guilty as charged here. Thank you for the graphic reminder. Everywhere I turn God is showing me this same thing. Ouch. It’s a good ouch, though. I’m listening…
Chaos…chaos…chaos…

Note to self,.. Let go and let God!
AMEN!
Romans chapter 1 in 69 words. Well done.
It’s almost comical the way we trip over oerselves thinking we can do a better job the the Creator Himself.
Keep the Faith!
Couldn’t have said it better! Wonderful!
