The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, him I will not endure.” (Psalm 101:5b) 

COMMENT: How many of you looked at the Winter Olympics? I understand that the TV program, “American Idol”, did a job on that event. Personally speaking, I can’t wait until the football season comes! However, there were some developments in the winter games that were of interest, namely,  the feud  between two speed skaters. Shani Davis and Chad Hedrick went at each other tooth and nail throughout the games. I believe that both were infected with the ‘malady” that was mentioned in our Lead Scripture, pride. In Saturday’s Washington Times Chad gave us proof positive by the statement he made after winning the silver medal in the 10,000 meters race. Here is his comment: “My heart is bigger than anyone else out there. If another skater had felt like I did today, he wouldn’t have been on the podium. That’s just me refusing to lose.” When God gives us the strength and the wherewithal to accomplish great things, we must never look inward, look upward and gave the Lord the glory.
