Pride

 
Know , My daughter, that I do not grant my graces to proud souls, and I even take away from them the graces I have granted. (1170)
 
.you always please Me by your humility. The greatest misery does not stop Me from uniting Myself to a soul, but where there is pride, I am not there. (1563)

I have always thought of Pride as the captain of the Deadly Sin Brigade.

I always find when I humble myself before God the greatest anointing of God comes to my spirit. I remember when I told someone who hated on the threads that I loved them in the Lord. I had a baptism of grace in the spirit so peaceful and beautiful. I fell back from the computer to lie in the bed. So sweet the spirit at times. I pray for them still.
