Beautiful examples of our Lord’s humility! Thanks for sharing these, Betty. May we always remember how humble Jesus was, even as the very Son of God. If he could be humble, how much more we should try to be!

I wish there were even more books out there on humility. It seems to be an under-served market because we all need humility. I’m glad you share my love of Discipline of Grace! Such good writings we got from Jerry Bridges.

It’s hard to go wrong with a Jerry Bridges’ book. I have benefited from each of his books that I have read; I’m thankful there are still several yet I can read. But I’m sorry for us that he has now passed on.

Oh, how I desire this trait yet I know it only comes through tough times. I will have to add this one to my list of to get books, thanks Lisa.

Thanks for this review! I have read a number of books on humility and the quotes you shared here tempt me to read this one as well. Discipline of Grace by Bridges’ is one of my favorite books. I appreciate your disclaimer as well as I have sometimes had similar feelings. Have a blessed weekend, my friend!
Pam

Every time I read things on humility, I think of you now, Floyd. I know it’s been close to your heart this year, but I’ve seen it in your words every since I’ve been reading your writings. Thanks for your example!

As you know I’ve had a similar calling of the Spirit in this regard. Funny, just today, over lunch with one of my friends, I spoke about the fact that humility is close to the top of the most beautiful things we can find in this life.
