The Need For Humility In Life by Godson1988(m): 3:47pm On Sep 11, 2016
This Life we Live in is full of mystery.No one really understand it all.There is need for us to humble before God and Man.Pride gets us no where,infact those who think highly of themselves because of their family background,Certificate,the kind of school they attend,beauty,Riches,Wealth,Fame and Popularity{there is more to Life than all these things} etc are nothing but Fools.As we all know,we brought nothing into this world and it is Certain we are taking nothing with us when we Leave this Sinful World.So why the envy,hatred,Conveteousness,Jealousy,Malice, hyprocrisy that we create among ourselves as human beings{which animals don't do}.
You know yourself more than anyone else.Are you proud,You talk to people anyhow,You belittle people,You can abuse anybody,You pride yourself so much in your beauty,You have this mentality that you don't need anybody help in life,You have the means to help people but because of pride you did not etc.You need to Change before it is too Late.IT WAS PRIDE THAT TURNED ANGELS INTO DEMONS!IT WAS HUMILITY THAT TURNED MEN INTO ANGELS!
WHAT IS HUMILITY
1 Humility means you are the first to apologise in every quarrel.
2 Humility means serving others when they are meant to be serving you.
3 Humility is listening instead of being talker.
4 Humilty is forgiving others even before they apologise.
5 Humility is refusing to accept praise after you do a good thing.
6 Humility is refusing to blow your trumpet and shutting your mouth after a great Success.
7 Humility is obeying orders today because Someday you may be the one giving orders.
8 Humility is serving God with your Whole heart.
9 Humility is not thinking you are useless Or inferior to others.
10 Humility means though you have self-Confidence and Self worth,you know that even a Child Can teach you a Lesson.
11 Humility is to always remeber that,the way up is down.
Humility is best learnt when prode is at its peak.True humilty is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself Less.To go far in Life,Remain Humble.Any throne without the footstool of humility will end up in disgrace!
The Bible says Pride preceeds a fall.Pride is a destroyer of Destiny. Pride will move a Man from Grace to Disgrace.Pride is about Man's GLORY while Humility is about GOD' S GLORY.We should always Remeber that we are what we are by the GRACE OF GOD.BE HUMBLE OR YOU WILL STUMBLE.

IT IS MY PRAYER THAT GOD WILL GIVE US THE GRACE TO REMAIN HUMBE IN LIFE.
