Faith
When Ego Meets God’s Purpose
Faith Facts
- History reveals that even strong-willed leaders can be used for good when their pride is submitted to God’s will.
- Scripture offers guidance on handling pride, reminding us that unchecked ego leads to downfall, but surrendered ambition finds purpose in God’s service.
- The bravery of the Ukrainian people demonstrates unity and faith in the face of overwhelming adversity.
Even the most visible political struggles show that pride, aligned with God’s plan, can serve something greater than the individual. When boldness yields to faith, self-interest may transform into courageous acts for peace and justice.
“Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18).
Throughout Scripture, God transforms individuals with strong egos—like Moses, David, and Peter—redirecting their talents toward His missions. The Christian worldview reminds us that our ambitions must be yoked to His glory, not just personal triumph.
The Ukrainian people display a powerful witness of unity, echoing the early church by standing firm and caring for one another during hardship, just as Acts 2:44 describes. Their endurance calls believers to act with compassion and conviction.
“All the believers were together and had everything in common” (Acts 2:44).
The true test of leadership lies not in ego alone, but in a willingness to serve, sacrifice, and pursue peace. As followers of Christ, let us pray for all leaders to seek God’s wisdom, surrender pride, and act boldly for righteousness.

- The Hyde Amendment has protected millions of unborn lives since its passage in 1976.
- Representative Henry Hyde viewed the amendment as his greatest legislative achievement.
- The amendment continues to prevent taxpayer funding for most abortions in federal programs.
Henry Hyde told me personally that he considered passing the Hyde Amendment his greatest achievement as a legislator. I agree with him.
The measure, first enacted in 1976, has stood as a bulwark against the use of federal dollars for abortion. For nearly five decades it has preserved taxpayer conscience and saved countless lives.
Hyde’s conviction was rooted in the belief that every human life bears the image of God. His persistence in Congress reflected a commitment to defend the most vulnerable among us.
Supporters note that without the amendment, federal funding would have financed millions more abortions. The law’s endurance demonstrates that principled legislation can endure despite relentless opposition.
