"Humility", 12 Beliefs of Jesus, Part 4
A Twelve Part Sermon Series by Bart Tarman
Living a humble life before God does not necessarily mean we have to retreat from the world and seek the solitude of a monk. It does mean that we have to put our ego to the side and defeat the forces that continue to pull us in directions that take us a way from God; feeling that we know what is best for us--that doing it "my way" is the only way and coming to terms with what Jesus wants for us: A fruitful life, lived out in receiving and giving love. And to set aside our inner desire to be acknowledged, recognized and openly thanked for what we do.
