Wow, that's all great, hon!
Humility is a tricky one. Like the guy who was so proud of his humility!! I'm not sure we can ever TRY to be humble, but rather ask the Lord to deal with our PRIDE. Get that removed, and I suspect humility then takes it's place.
For me, I think taking Jesus as LORD OVER ALL OF MY LIFE when I was 31 was the starting point. Once that really started to really sink in and gel (which for me took a deal of time), then in due course I somehow reached the point where, UNDER HIS LORDSHIP, I began to see myself as a "nobody". As John the Baptist so pertinently said: John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease. Funny thing, I just realised I don't think I have any awareness at all as to whether I'm humble - or actually what I am in this area. Hmm... that's really kinda 'weird'...
Your prayers, everyone's prayers, are SO important. We pray for each other - then God can WORK IN US!!!! (we fail to do that - then He cannot!)
