I Have come to this place in my walk with the Lord where things I thought to be important have no value at all. The Lord has spent years teaching me it is about Him and not about me. I have spent so much time trying to prove I am right or someone else is wrong. In doing so I lost sight of what is really important and that is God and His will. He showed me my efforts spent to show/prove was all about me it was not to present God as I understood Him to another of the saints, to edify the body or glorify God. The whole time I had become self serving and I pray for forgiveness for the babes in Christ that I muddied the water before them as I did my self righteous dance.
With this in mind the title should be THE COST OF BEING RIGHT. Luke 9:25

I argued with a fence post
an attempt to make it see
I knew I was right but it kept
arguing back at me
The arguing continued
it never seemed to end
Though I press my point
the fence post wouldn’t bend
A Proverb came into my head
something about a fool
By now I was in too deep
my flesh it had to rule
So it continued back and forth
I had to make it see
The glass before us
is not half full
it is half empty
an attempt to make it see
I knew I was right but it kept
arguing back at me
The arguing continued
it never seemed to end
Though I press my point
the fence post wouldn’t bend

By now I was in too deep
my flesh it had to rule
So it continued back and forth
I had to make it see

is not half full
it is half empty
