HUMILITY

Robert Ellis Key

Thomas Carlyle once wrote to a friend, "It is long years since I first saw the meaning of humility, and it came on me like water on one dying of thirst, and I felt it, and still feel it, to be the beginning of moral life."

True humility is spiritual. It signifies a subjection of self which is demanded by a knowledge of the omnipotence of God. Those who recognize the power of God naturally feel humble before this power. Humility compels us to recognize our personal inability and turns us absolutely to the infinite ability of Spirit.
