Proverbs 25:27 It is not good to eat much honey; So to seek one’s own glory is not glory.
What happens when you eat too much of something? I’m not talking about eating too much lunch or Christmas dinner but eating nothing but honey for a few days or something similar.
Whilst we may kid ourselves we could eat our favourite food for a week, we would get sick of eating a single thing in the end; but rich foods would not take that long!
Seeking our own glory is about as good as eating nothing but honey… the more we eat it the less we think of it until we are sick of it and despise it.
Don’t get caught up in judging yourself but take in all God gives you for it is good!
