Vanity... The Sin of Self-Indulgence

Vanity, the sin of Self- Indulgence, is very tricky to deal with. When a good thing happens in our lives we are quick to give ourselves the credit and pat ourselves on the back. However, is it really our doing? Is it really us that should get the recognition? I never give myself the credit for good things that happen to me, I don't feel as though my stars are all aligned or the moon is working in my favor. I believe that God blesses me for the good that I do in my life and works things out in my favor.
