*When you refused to appreciate those* who have been a blessing to your life even when you have over enough to do so.
*When message of God has no value or meaning to you* through the same man of God or person God has tremendously used for your upliftment.
*When you are too* officious about position.
Don't be conscious of tittle be humble Remember God resist the proud but gives Grace to the humble.
Stay humble
