On Humility


I read a quote from C.S. Lewis that says, “True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.”

Thinking less of self reduces stress. Why? Because when we think too much of ourselves, making statements like, “What will it do good to me”; or “I deserve better than that”, we will start believing that we are important and should be treated accordingly. Oh what a stress we will have, because not everyone will think we are.

Another thing about thinking too much of ourselves is that we will start fancying about situation and that is not healthy either.

The Lord is teaching us the way of humility for our own good.

Oh Wisdom, may you reside in us so we will know what is of value to You. Amen.
