Note: How to avoid pride and become humble
Pride and the Priesthood
It is almost impossible to be lifted up in pride when our hearts are filled with charity. "No one can assist in this work except he shall be humble and full of love." (Doctrine and Covenants 12:8.) When we see the world around us through the lens of the pure love of Christ, we begin to understand humility.
