“It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.”
This proverb is a great truth we need to apply to our own life. What is the Bible trying to tell us here? Honey is very sweet, if you consume too much of it, its not good for you. Just like too much honey is bad for you, searching your own glory is terrible for you. As people search to find glory in their success’ the only thing evident is pride and self will. Why are you trying to kill that big buck this year? Maybe you already killed him! Who has received the most glory for it? Was it your bow? Yourself? Your Property? Many people like to say Praise God, but if you have found your own glory in your success, its not been about God, but about your sinful heart! Don’t allow pride to destroy your life. God may have blessed you this season, but remember God can change your world when you begin to lift yourself up!

James 4:2-3
“Ye ask, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.”
