Pride is caused from a lack of realistic perspective about ourselves. A realistic perspective of ourselves is : " We are flawed, immoral individuals." On our very best day we aren't good enough to earn God's gift of eternal life. We may seem like we are doing good or even great, but must realize that God's ways are higher than our ways and his thoughts higher than our thoughts. We become prideful when we lose sight of our sinful nature. Looking to Jesus and the redemptive work of the cross we can remind ourselves that it is only through the cross we become worthy of God's grace.

Pride can be caused by achievements, accomplishments, recognition, or superiority over others. It stems from a sense of accomplishment, self-worth, and importance.
