The more we do this, the easier and more natural it will become until, at long last, we will be humble.”

I find this whole article extremely true. This statment especially is something that my boyfriend is struggling with. People do have to seek strength and ask God to help them be more patient and willing to do things we normal will not. WE can not do it alone with out his guidance. People everyday especailly in the church choose not to do certain things because its “beneath” them or because they feel there in a higher place, where mind you God has taken them. Know one is better then Jahovah and everyone has to be Humble and do what God would have done and most importantly what he would have wanted you to do….Please the Lord in every way. That’s my Motto.

be blessed.

When I read that line I was reminded of something else that I have read: “Going to church does not make one a Christian anymore than standing in your garage makes you a car.” We can think we are humble and thankful servants of the Lord, when in reality nobody we come into contact with would ever conclude that based upon our actions.

God is always within us and knows us better than we know ourselves, so thinking properly and having the right heart is always important in our relationship to God. But in our relationships to others we must bear in mind that actions certainly do speak louder than words. We demonstrate who we are — and who Christ is — by what we do.
