Wiser and Happier: Devotions From Time of Grace

DAY 33 OF 37

Personal Integrity: Cultivate humility Radio humorist Garrison Keillor once asked his mother, “Mom, am I good-looking?” Her modest, Midwestern reply: “You’re good-looking enough, dear.” Humility is learned behavior. By nature, we are miniature Satans: full of ourselves, prideful, interested in only one agenda in life: ours. We imagine that we are the center of the solar system--no--the galaxy. Other people are just bit players and props in the drama of Me. It is natural to crave attention and to boast. It is Christian to praise others first and wait patiently for others to discover our own brilliance. Our Lord Jesus is both our example and teacher, the divine Redeemer who came to earth not to be served but to serve. Can you accept this? “Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips” (Proverbs 27:2).
