I’m sure glad that scripture is easier to interpret than my writing!!!

If we accept adoration, as in receive it, it elevates us and leads to pride. When we are full of pride we have no room for God.

What I meant was that if we seek praise or adoration of ourselves and are raised up by others, we tend to let go of God. That is why it is poison.

We tend to reach for God when we are falling and not when we feel good. I say it is important to always adore Jesus and God.

You said: “We tend to reach for God when we are falling and not when we feel good. I say it is important to always adore Jesus and God.”

I say: Amen and Amen!
