God bless!
To humble oneself is the biggest expression of self-control any human can manifest. It takes true courage, perseverance and valor to admit your fault. It may not seem rewarding at the time you do it and at times you may get abused by those you are humbling yourself before but the eternal prize gained by this action is incomparable to anything this earth offers. Many of us don’t put too much stock in the eternal, so I will take it to the next level and tell you that your ability to humble yourself will pay immediate dividends here on earth at the moment you do it. How do I know? Experience! Is it easy? Of course not! Do I kick myself sometimes afterwards? Yes I do! This is all part of the process but I know that my reward is greater than anything my pride can offer. I encourage you today to put this action to process in your life as I will in mine. All that can happen is that He lifts us up, I’m ok with that, are You?

James 4:10 “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.”
