I Don't Know Anyone That Is As Humble And Respectful As He Is. by Nobody: 9:58am On Mar 21, 2015 |
It's amazing that down there are thousands if not millions of people, yet God has laser- focused vision and can see each person down to the number of hairs on our head and our thoughts, even at night. We, on the other hand, can't even see who is in the next room. Can we dare to understand how great our God is? We can't because He is far beyond anything we can imagine. But as amazing as our God is, I don't know anyone that is as humble and respectful as He is. Every time you see Him talking to someone in the bible, pay attention to the love, patience and care in His voice. Psalms 138:6 says "though the LORD is on high, Yet He regards the lowly; But the proud He knows from afar." Our God is the Almighty and because He Himself is humble, He has a special place in His heart for the lowly and humble. Christ said “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle AND HUMBLE IN HEART, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30 NIV) Maybe that's it? Maybe Humility is one of the key things that God wants us to emulate in Him. Maybe we need to learn humility from the king of kings who out of the millions of ways He could have showcased Himself to the world He chose to come to an unknown virgin girl, have a carpenter as His earthly dad, choose disciples from the least expected of the society, have no place to call a home, allow His own creations to insult Him, slap Him, spit on Him and crucify Him. All this He did because He is humble and loving. "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." (Matthew 23:12 NIV) "He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way." (Psalm 25:9 NIV) "You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low." (2 Samuel 22:28 NIV) "For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory." (Psalm 149:4 NIV) "He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble." (Luke 1:52 NIV) Our God, mighty and powerful, yet humble in every way, calls us to be like Him. God bless you!!! |
