Conceit | Humility | Self-righteousness

“Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord.” (ICor. 1:31).

A man who was suffering from constant headaches visited his doctor. “Doctor, I don’t know why I keep on getting these awful headaches,” he said. “I don’t drink like so many others do. I don’t smoke like so many others do. I don’t run around at night like so many others do. I don’t overeat like so many others do. I don’t…” The doctor interrupted at this point. “Tell me,” he said, “this pain in the head you complain of, is it a sharp, shooting kind of pain?” “Yes,” the patient replied, “that describes it perfectly. A sharp, shooting kind of pain!” The doctor then made his diagnosis: “Simple,” he said, “your problem is that you have your halo on too tight. All you need to do is loosen it a bit.”
