Self-Deception is the action or practice of allowing oneself to believe that a false or invalidated feeling, idea, or situation is true.

My Self-deception, lies and falsehood have cause me into believing that gambling was the right thing to do; an answer and solution to my problem.

Something is wrong with me and my beliefs, because if everyone can make money from gambling, they do not need to work anymore.

My Self-righteousness makes me think and feel that I was different and special, I think that I can make money through gambling.

The truth was gambling brought chaos and destruction into my life EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Galatians 6:3 – If anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Sometimes people do not want to admit what they are really like, so they deceive themselves into thinking they are better than they are.

1 Corinthians 3:18 – Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. People often think they are so smart that they fool themselves into believing error.

James 1:22 Do not merely listen to the Word and so deceive yourselves, do what it says.
