"People speak of humility and meekness as something that would rob us of what is noble and bold. Oh, that all would realize that this is the nobility of the kingdom of heaven, that this the royal spirit that the King of heaven displayed, that this is godlike, to humble oneself and to become the servant of all! This is the path to gladness and the glory of Christ's presence in us, of His power resting upon us."
--from Andrew Murray's Humility: The Journey Toward Holiness
There's nothing quite like realizing for the first time that you've spent your whole life bearing an ugly sense of entitlement to all that is good in certain areas of your life. Praise God that He reveals our sins to us gradually.
