In his pride the wicked man does not seek Him .In all his thoughts there is no room for God.(GODS BIG BOOK)

Unfortunately some will never get to this step and be robbed of life prematurely. Pride is a Prison and you will remain in there until you admit your inability to shake your shortcomings and addictions. God is waiting , ready and willing for you to get to this point so He can supernaturally pick up the pieces of your life and put them back together again. Stay in Prison if you must ,but there is a better way that many of us have taken. We know the way out and this is one of the keys that will unlock the main door but you have to make a choice . STAY OR GO ! Pride is a Prison and you will die there addicted , alone , and broken if you chose to stay.
We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. On Him we have set our hope that He will continue to deliver us.
(2 Corinthians 1:10) (GODS BIG BOOK)
