The sermon last week was concerning pride, pride being the sin that leads to all others. He took a piece from the book of daniel to show us how prideful king nebecanezzar was, and how God took away his power and sanity, it took neb seven years in the wilderness to realize that God is sovereign deserves our worship. The story reminded me of the times when I think I know best, or that I'm special and deserve praise. Preacher ken gave the analogy. "a dog gets patted, rubbed and shown affection and thinks 'wow, he must be a God' and loves his owner. A cat gets that same treatment and thinks 'wow, I must be a God'." His point was clear to me, we need to be grateful for the things we receive snd give thanks, not get full of pride and begin to think we deserve good things to happen to us.
