Out of pride, we isolate ourselves from others and also from God. Instead, we must be willing to do God’s will, even when it is different from ours. We must be prepared to put aside our desires, however painful it might seem.
We need to make radical changes to our lives. The change begins in our minds. No sinful thought should linger in the mind. We mustn't let the thought of sin enter because it will reach our hearts and poison our very lives once we let it in.
