FINDING HUMILITY IN GOD

FINDING HUMILITY IN GOD


The power of LOVE
Of God-in my life
Has brought me great humility


He has brought me LIFE
When I had none
He has RESCUED me
Over and over again


He has taught me to LIVE
the RIGHT WAY-by loving others-
By forgiving others-and being KIND
To others


And most of ALL to RESPECT
All others-all nationalities-all creeds-
ALL races and all religions


WE should all be ONE IN GOD


“For every one who EXALTS himself
Will be humbled


But everyone who humbles himself
Will be exalted” Luke 14:11


In today's parable
Jesus teaches us
To let others
Take the most important place


To LET others feel exalted
And for us to take the LOWER position


That is fine by me
I don't need to be
The most important person
In the room


I don't need to be
The most important person
In the world


For I have FOUND MYSELF
In God
I know I am someone
In God
And I know you are SOMEONE
In God too
We are ALL someone
Because GOD LOVES US!


FINDING HUMILITY in God
And RESPECTING all others


“In your majesty
Ride forth victoriously-
In the cause of truth-
Humility-and justice-


Let your right hand achieve
Awesome deeds” Psalm 45:4


I am FINDING humility
In the power and the LOVE
Of God


“When pride comes
Then comes disgrace


But with humility
COMES WISDOM” Proverbs 11:2


TAKE the lower position
In life
If you are to be exalted-
LET God do it-
Do NOT BOAST about yourself


“In the same way
You who are younger
Submit yourselves
To your elders


ALL of yourselves
CLOTHE yourself in humility
Toward one another


'GOD opposes the proud
But shows favor to the humble'” 1 Peter 5:5


Particularly this year
In this YEAR OF MERCY
From God towards us
And from us-towards one another


Let us
FIND HUMILITY IN GOD
Let us
RESPECT all others-LOVE all others


And let us let others-
TAKE the higher position
And NOT judge one another


For it is by FINDING OUR HUMILITY IN GOD-
That we actually do FIND OURSELVES


In Jesus' name
