God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Pride isn’t limited to self-righteousness. Our pride can also be self-preoccupation: being overly concerned with what others think of us and strongly desiring that others would think highly of us. Shyness can result from proudly fearing saying something stupid. Thinking extensively of how we look or act in public can come from a deep desire to impress others. Regularly redirecting conversation to ourselves can be prideful self-centeredness. The bottom line is that when we are proud, we think a lot about ourselves.

From "Italian Grilling," by Jean Galton (Broadway). This method of pressing
the meat while cooking yields very moist chicken and crispy skin. Although
the original recipe calls for halving a whole chicken, we found it worked
well with bone-in chicken breasts as well.
1. Place whole chicken breast side down on cutting board. Split along 1
side of backbone. Place chicken skin side up and press down with your hand
to flatten.
2. Place chicken in non-metal bowl or resealable plastic bag. Drizzle with
olive oil, pepper flakes, half of the lemon slices and garlic. Refrigerate
at least 2 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
3. Prepare grill for medium-low fire. Spray grill rack with non-stick
vegetable oil cooking spray before placing over fire. Remove chicken from
marinade, discarding lemon and garlic; sprinkle with salt. Place chicken
flat on grill, skin side down, and place bricks on top. Cover and grill 15
minutes. Turn chicken over, replacing bricks, and grill until juices run
clear, about 15 minutes.
4. Remove chicken from grill and let stand 10 minutes before serving. Place
remaining slices of lemon on grill for 2 to 4 minutes per side, until
lightly browned. Garnish chicken with lemon slices before serving.
