A greater form of humility...

















April 3, 2011

"Doesn't it honor Him (God) more when His children no longer see themselves only as sinners saved by grace, but now as heirs of God? Isn't it a greater form of humility to believe Him when He says we are precious in His sight when we don't feel very precious? We must rise up to the high call of God and stop saying things about ourselves that are no longer true. Maturity comes from faith in the sufficiency of God's redemptive work that establishes us as sons and daughters of the Most High." B Johnson
