I have to catch myself when things are going well because the light comes on me and it's tempting to take the credit but the truth is without God I am nothing. A man came up to Jesus one day and said "good master" and Jesus said
"Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone." Of all the sins it seems to me that pride is mentioned most in the bible so I'm going to guess that most of us struggle with it.
The solution to this struggle is found in Jeremiah 9:24
"but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the LORD."
