1. Be wary of the natural human tendency to over‑emphasize self (28‑30).
• There is a natural human tendency to highly value human creations (30a).
• There is a natural human tendency to take the credit (30b).
• There is a natural human tendency to think too highly of oneself (30c).
Action: Ask yourself, "where do I over‑emphasize myself?"
• There is a natural human tendency to highly value human creations (30a).
• There is a natural human tendency to take the credit (30b).
• There is a natural human tendency to think too highly of oneself (30c).
Action: Ask yourself, "where do I over‑emphasize myself?"
2. The remedy for our natural tendency is an emphasis on God (31‑33).
• God has the power to grant and take authority from any human (31).
• God is the one who is truly sovereign over the kingdoms of the earth (32).
• God, not humanism, is the only reason we are more than dumb beasts (33).
Action: Take a second right here to pray and acknowledge God's work in your life.

3. True humility is rooted in your theology (34‑37).
• Humility is properly rooted in a recognition of God's Kingdom (34).
• Humility grows from an understanding of man's relationship with God (35).
• God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble (36‑37, James 4:6).
