 | It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory. |
 | It is not good to eat much honey, Nor is it glory to search out one's own glory. |
| Proverbs 25:27 |

I love this verse. It can be applied to almost everything in our lives. The only exception is our lord and savior. You can never get too much of him.
