Walk Humbly

Humble is NOT…

self-seeking                        proud

self-righteous                    rude

ignorant                               arrogant

apathetic                             conceited

… jealous of the success of others

…seeking attention, accolades, or glory

…waiting around to be noticed or thanked

 

Humble…

…is prepared to put the needs of the “other” ahead of my own needs

…knows that God sees what they I do, and that is enough

…finds satisfaction in the simple things

…has no hidden agenda

…is willing to let go of personal gain for the sake of the “other”

…is ready to let go of rights in order to help the “other”

…knows failure and extends grace to those who fail
