Quote by Paddick van Zyl

“The praise of man brings with it three snares: pride, false security and addiction. Taking the glory unto self and not acknowledging God, relying on what I can do and entrenching a false sense of self worth and getting addicted to more praise. The praise of God is real and everlasting.”
