Humility is not a character trait to develop,
it’s the natural by-product of being with Jesus.
Louie Giglio
***
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8 NIV
***
Jesus is the God whom we can approach without pride
and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.
Blaise Pascal
***
He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.
All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful
toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.
Psalm 25:9-10 NIV
***
Only God is able to humble us without humiliating us
and to exalt us without flattering us.
Ravi Zacharias
***
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand,
that he may lift you up in due time.
1 Peter 5:6 NIV
***
These are the few ways we can practice humility:
To speak as little as possible of one’s self.
To mind one’s own business.
Not to want to manage other people’s affairs.
To avoid curiosity.
To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.
To pass over the mistakes of others.
To accept insults and injuries.
To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.
To be kind and gentle even under provocation.
Never to stand on one’s dignity.
To choose always the hardest.
Mother Teresa
