Sunday’s Food for Thought – Over confidence

They who are smart, talented and (consciously and unconsciously) overly proud of themselves will tend to find it hard to accept other people’s feedback and inputs. However constructive.

Let’s personally be responsible to God for all the talents He has blessed us with, while at same time be mindful of our heart and mind.
