{Humble}

“Humility is ‘thy will be done.’ Humility is focused on God, not self. Humility is not an exaggeratedly low opinion of yourself. Humility is self-forgetfulness. A humble man never tells you how bad he is. He’s too busy thinking about you to talk about himself. That’s why humility is such a joy and so close to the beatific vision, where we will be so fascinated with God that we forget ourselves completely.” – Peter Kreeft, How Does the Weakness of the Cross Make Us Strong?

So it's not pretending to be a bad dancer when you aren't, or pretending to be amazing when you aren't.  It's giving God the glory.  Being so overwhelmingly in love with Him that that's all that matters.  I need this in my life.  When I saw it on this blog, I wanted to share it with you all.

Christ, let us live humbly for you!  You are in control!

Amen
