Don't Swallow Your Pride: Spit it Out

There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. Proverbs 14:12 NKJV
It is God's desire that we choose His way instead of choosing to lean on our own understanding. As instructed in Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV, we are to: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. In order to know what's acceptable in God's eyesight, we must take time to know Him and to know His ways, which cannot be done without consistent Bible-reading.
The Bible is God's sacred, Holy Word, which you've probably heard described as "basic instructions on before leaving earth." It contains everything that a Christian (believer in Jesus Christ) needs to know about God's will, His laws, His character, and salvation. The Bible also mentions sins such as (but not limited to) unforgiveness, slothfulness, jealousy, murder, theft, sexual immorality, and blasphemy but...what does the Bible say about pride?
In Epiphany Z. Crush's thirteenth published book, Don't Swallow Your Pride: Spit it Out, she answers these questions and shares key Bible verses pertaining to pridefulness. She provides more than fifty surprising characteristics of this dangerous sin that's not discussed frequently. In reading this candid revelation, readers will gain understanding about why pride is often called "the father of other sins" and, most importantly, how to get rid of it.

Ever since I was a little girl, I have had a love for words and literature! I have such vivid memories of playing Scrabble and of going to the library to check out tons of books on Saturday mornings. As an adult, I aspire to make both children and adults feel as I still do about books and literacy. I've been writing since age ten- dreaming of one day being able to share my writing with the world. Currently, I have eight published books: The Sky is the Limit (children's) and Love, Heartbreaks, Epiphanies, and Joy (adult poetry collection), Extra 'Nessa (children's), Wake-up Call (YA novelette), Highway to Heaven (YA novel), Conversations in the Midnight Hour: A Journal with Scriptures of Wisdom and Consolation (YA nonfiction), Life, as Seen Through Her Introverted Eyes: A Collection of Poetry & Prose (YA poetry book), and The Repayment Plan (adult fiction). Paperback copies of my books can be purchased on my website: epiphanysskyanddesign.com. I am the owner of an online bookstore/giftshop. If you want to stay connected with me, please follow me on
