Humility

Humility is having a modest or low view of one’s importance. Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less. Being able to put others above you without envy or discontentment will allow God to work miracles in your life as you carry yourself in his image and his likeness. Never believing that you are better than anyone else but at the same time believing in everything that you are and everything that God has called you to be. Life is all about balance. It’s not to say that when you put others first you have to forget about yourself. To be able to put others first you have to love yourself first so that everything you do in life stems from love. When you are able to find the steady balance that does not take away from you but also adds to the lives of those around you that is when you are truly walking in purpose and fulfilling the Lord’s plan for your life. Never compare your life to anyone else ! Why ? For you are incomparable as there will never be anyone like you. There never has been and there never will be. You are special in your own right and that is the beauty of life. There may be similarities between people but they will never be the same. This is why it’s a waste of time looking at what others have or what they may do because their life was not intended for you. God does not mistakes and he knows exactly what he wants to do with your life and how all your hearts desires will be fulfilled at the anointed time. Faith is all you need.

The opposite of humility is pride & envy. In life people will envy you and will tend to be jealous of the talents that you possess. Sometimes you may even find yourself asking a variety questions about why you haven’t achieved certain things that others have and why life is treating you in a certain manner. It’s important to remember that you don’t know what it takes to live the life of someone else. All that glitters isn’t gold. Everyone has their own battles and faces their own challenges, the things that you don’t get to see on a regular basis because not everyone shares their struggles openly. God shaped you to be you. No one else can live your life for you. His intentions are to give you a life where you will prosper with a future and never ending hope. You deserve all the good things that life has to offer because you are worthy. As we humble ourselves before the most High, we will be exalted and lifted up to new levels, new chapters and new opportunities. Coming into contact with those in positions of power who will help lead us to our breakthrough. Stay focused and never give up no matter how tough things get. You won’t go through more than you’re capable of dealing with. As we remain humble and live our lives believing that we have all that we need, everything else will be added unto us and we will be made whole. Happiness is a choice. No one can take away your happiness unless you let them. Trust in God’s plan for your life and never stop moving forward.

We are all equal. Society has made us some of think that we are better than others because of the money that we’ve acquired or the material that we possess. These things are accomplishments but they don’t make us better than one another. The same way God has blessed us with these things is the same way we need to be humble and grateful because the one who gave it to us is the same person who can take it away if we mishandle the gift that we’ve been given. Transform your mind and renew the way you think. Who you are is far more important than what you do or what you have. Humble yourself and satisfy the Lord. Be there for those who need you. Aspire to be selfless and considerate in all your endeavours and as you pour into others, God’s grace will be poured back into you and may your cup runneth over. As you increase may your pride decrease. Pride is ugly and destructive. It’s not an easy task but to put others first is a skill that has the highest rewards. What legacy do you want to leave here on Earth ? What do you want people to remember most about you ? Have a think about that and as you do so may your heart be filled with understanding and purpose all the days of your life. Amen.

“Do not conform to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind”.
