Luke 14:11
[i]
For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
[/i]
How can we become humble? Humility does not mean to put ourselves down. Truly humble people compare themselves only to Christ, realizing the inherant sinfulness and they know their own limitations. However, they also recognize their gifts and strengths and are willing to do the what God asks of them.
“Humulity is not self-degredation; it is realistic assessment and commitment to serve.”
Life Application Study Bible
I agree with the humility aspect. May we all pray for each other in this area. 🙂
