Recently a friend asked me to define humility from my perspective. It was a good exercise for my own life. These are the immediate answers i gave:
Humility to me is about...
...holy kindness, gentle confidence, tender countenance, living without pretense, having an honest perspective of one’s reality, wholehearted acceptance of your place in the world, showing up to serve not to be served, and focusing on God’s glory not your own.
"Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up." James 4:10 NKJV
My friend Jim Cole’s song comes to mind even now. Enjoy:
Simply trust.
Pastor Kerry Willis
