When I did this, He put all my pride before me and shown me how it was wrong. I was shown all my "selfish" thoughts and ideals. He made me realize that it is not about me, but about Him. The one I still have trouble with is the "I deserve better than that" thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly when I attempt to do something that I find I just can't accomplish. no matter how fast your car is you'll always run across someone faster.... or running, swimming talking or any other thing we take pride with. No matter how great we think we are, compared to God we're nothing. so to become humble push yourself to your limits and beyond, and when you fail, or do something really dumb, just accept it and get on with life.

Guest ninhao Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Learning humility is a hard lesson and one which I kick against often. The best way to learn it is to be encouraged when your pride of self is hurt imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't the internet used to be in Black & White? No it used to be an amber color with a yellow type text. Seriously I remember! My first computer had a 20 meg hard drive! Wow!
