Cultivating Humility - Part 2

Paul tells the Colossians church that in light of God’s salvation for them, there should be changes in their lives - part of this is putting on humility. 

Humility is a character that is evident in our relationship with others; it can be exercised as we relate with others. God loves humility and seeks it out; He exalts the humble.

Truths that Characterize a Man of Humility

1. A humble man is blind to his own humility. 
2. A humble man to looks to Christ for humility. (John 15:4; Hebrews 12:2)
3. A humble man loves the Word of God. (Psalms 119: 50, 11, 25, 28, 47, 54, 105)
4. A humble man depends entirely on the grace and mercy of God.

“Humility is the most difficult of all virtues to achieve; nothing dies harder than the desire to think well of self.”
- T. S. Eliot
