Pride vs.Peace

Psalm 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law and nothing shall offend them.

I have to admit that sometimes I can wear my feelings on my sleeves. It's not always in obvious ways, because I have learned to ACT humble and spiritual. And that is as much PRIDE as anything. Why is it so many of us have to be flattered and begged to do what we aught to do humbly? Most pastors can tell dozen of instances where he has had to baby along "mature" Christians. How often have you heard someone say.,"Well, be careful how you handle so and so.You know how easily offended she or (he) is." Do you sometimes think people don't appreciate what you do for them? Do your feelings get hurt often? Maybe you (and I) need to memorize and meditate on the above verse. God promises us great peace if we love His Word. I have always heard when peace leaves, SIN has entered. And we know what to do with sin.
 I John 1:9
