I read a book a few years ago called Humility: The Beauty of Holiness by Andrew Murray. I recently found it on Podbean and have been listening to it in the mornings. I cannot recommend it enough. It is powerful and convicting. I could listen to it daily as I am in such need of humility!
The Lord has been working in my life since we came to the field showing me my great need of humility. He has exposed that I think more highly of myself than I ought to think. I am not Christ-like nor have I died to self like I should have. He humbled himself to the cross, yet I am offended by the attitudes of those who don’t treat me as I think they should.
Again and again I have been brought to Moses. The Bible says he was the meekest in all the earth. This was said of him as others rose up against him – against God’s chosen leader. He did not defend himself or tell others that God had chosen him. He humbled himself to the cross.
One of the most Christ-like attitudes we can attain is that of His humility, and yet it is probably the hardest as we must battle our prideful flesh!
Again, I highly recommend the book or the reading of it on Podbean.

Hi Mommy! I enjoyed reading your post! Humility is something that I need to work on as well. That sounds like a great book! Love, Anna

Thank you for the recommendation. God’s been pointing out my haughtiness to me (thinking I’m better that someone else) which is a close cousin to pride. I’m so glad God is so patient with us! Keep on climbing those mountains. By God’s strength, we can 🙂
