I will never be proud of my humility. I seek humility, yet I'm sober, yet I eat truth in my humility.

Being proud of our humility is a contradiction in terms.
I am pleased though that through Christ I can be a humble servant to Him and to others. It is a blessing that brings me joy but not pride (being proud) |

Pride does not even enter the equation. If you are proud .... you cannot be humble that is an oxymoron.

Being proud of your humility is actually exalting yourself

This reminds me of a certain Comic in 8-bit form...
Read the bottom row for the relevance. http://www.nuklearpower.com/daily.php?date=051027  Myself? I don't think I'm very humble at all, still need work on that. "Clearly I lack arrogance as that would be a flaw." ~Red Mage Last edited by RichardS; 11-03-2007 at 09:01 PM. |
