How To Be Humble

After it sitting on my desk for 3 months I have finally started Humility by C.J. Mahaney. It is a pretty good book. It is basic, written in a very easy to read style, and discusses a subject that all need help with. As I read, I have been struck by the following thought; Humility is not something we can seek after, and if we do seek after humility it will result in pride. One will find oneself so delighted and proud of being so humble. The only way to gain true humility is to seek something greater than ourselves, namely God. Only when we get a sense of his greatness, wonder, and being can we properly view ourselves and walk in humility. And if we do gain a true sense of who He is we will have no other response but humility.
