Stay Humble

Day 49 of 365  •  FORMATION

Before destruction a man’s heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.

Proverbs 18:12 (ESV)

Proverb Truth

Success has a way of testing us.

So does praise.

And sometimes the greatest danger isn’t failure. It’s forgetting who gave us the blessings in the first place.

Humility keeps us grounded. It reminds us that everything good in our lives is ultimately a gift from God.

I’ve never met a truly great man who spent much time talking about how great he was. The strongest men I’ve known carried themselves with quiet confidence and grateful hearts.

Jesus in Action

Jesus, though Lord of all, humbled Himself and served others.

His greatness was revealed through His humility.

Forged Wisdom

Epictetus taught: “First say to yourself what you would be; then do what you have to do.”

Humility and purpose walk together.

The No Limits Challenge

Thank God today for the blessings you’ve received.

Prayer

Father, protect me from pride. Keep my heart humble and remind me that every good gift comes from You. Amen.
