Humility

Nate Saint, who gave his life for Christ as a missionary, said it this way: “If we could only grasp the significance of the Incarnation, the word sacrifice would disappear from our vocabulary.” Jesus is our great hope!

We know that education is essential in getting out of the slums, and we also know that a high score on placement exams does not transform the human heart. Without Jesus, the more we know, the sadder we become. But with Jesus, we can use the gift of knowledge to worship and honor him all our days under the sun.

God in the flesh surrendered himself, entering Jerusalem on the back of a donkey. He continued to yield all the way to the cross. The charge of the believer is to follow that example of humble relent.

He had indeed scattered the proud and lifted up the humble! 

Ask God to give you his wisdom and discernment in a changing and challenging world.

During our times of prayer and praise, what is the posture of our hearts?

What are you planting today that you will never see grow?

Ask God to give you the humility to seek help. Don’t let your pride get in the way.

With your hands lifted to God as an act of humble dependence, ask God to show you the condition of your heart.
