Humility
Proverbs 29:23 New English Translation
23 A person’s pride will bring him low,
but one who has a lowly spirit will gain honor.
Humble
Lowliness misunderstood not looking down on one’s self
It is not looking at self at all, but living simple and true
Humility embraces him, whose attitude towards self
Is that of knowing self the best, his weakness, flaws, and mood
Humility is not only Godward but also towards man
Engrained by Christ, Himself, He was lowly and meek
A true living example of how we should be the best we can
No guile, no pride or hypocrisy, just love, care, and weak
Jan Wienen
