The Impact Of Pride

The longer that I linger on this planet, the more I discover the lack of true perspective that I have about my life. In 1974, Bravo, a software program, which is generally considered to be the first program to incorporate the WYSIWYG technology, enabling the procedure, What You See Is What You Get. This was a revolutionary concept at the time because before this software was released, printing was almost like trying to hit a target in the dark. What your eyes perceived on your computer screen was not accurately reflected when attempted to print your work. 

A lot like what are realities are like without the wisdom of Christ. 

"We set our eyes not on what we see but on what we cannot see. What we see will last only a short time, but what we cannot see will last forever." - (2 Corinthians 4:18 | NCV)

" . . . Ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory - to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for Christians, oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him - endless energy, boundless strength!" - (Ephesians 1:17-19)

To see how this looks let's examine a king who lived around 700 BC. (2nd Chronicles 26 and 2nd Kings 15: 1-7)
