Humility

A TRULY humble person escapes being humbled. Himself and humiliation are widely different. As a matter of fact, humble people are very scarce, and there is not a man on earth who does not get humbled. Usually we learn the humbling lesson of the unsuitability of the flesh to God by our own individual failures and follies. Perhaps in no school is this lesson learned more bitterly than in that, where we attempt to serve God by our own fleshly ways and wisdom.
