What Is Humility? (And How Do I Live a Humble Life?)
1. Humility values God’s ways above all else.
2. Humility grows over time as we are transformed.
3. Humility remembers none of us is greater.
Jesus exhorts the disciples not to act like proud kings, but humble servants.
4. Humility knows who you are and whose you are.
5. Humility is honest.

Content: A sober mind sees things rightly, which is as God sees. This holds value in its proper place; it is never devalued or overvalued. We don’t prop ourselves, or others, up. Nor does a humble person tear herself down. False humility means not owning who you are in an effort to appear humble. This may include denying the existence of God-given gifts, desires, thoughts, and needs. By denying these things, we undermine the beauty of something God values. Humility doesn’t say, “Look at how bad I am,” any more than it says, “Look at how good I am.” It points to the Father and His goodness.
