STRENGTH OF HUMILITY

Humility is a sign of power through submission rather than weakness.

Dearest Reader,

To ensure that our voices are heard, we are urged to stand out from the crowd and prove ourselves. By many measures, strength is determined by visibility, power, and influence.

However, a very different picture of power emerges when we examine the life of Jesus.

Unlike anybody else, Jesus commanded authority. He walked with a clarity of purpose that altered the path of history, worked miracles, and spoke with wisdom that puzzled academics. However, His life was marked by humility rather than arrogance or self-exaltation.

Instead of demanding honour at every turn, the Son of God showed strength that came from humility.

Humility is a sign of power through submission rather than weakness. Being truly humble does not include downplaying your value or acting as though your talents are unimportant. Rather, it is realising that God is the source of all your abilities, opportunities, and even your breath.

I want you to hold on to this truth that humility is more about aligning your hearts with God’s plan than it is about demeaning yourself. Jesus demonstrated that service, not dominance, is the way to real influence. No position can match the effect of a humble heart.

I pray that we all continue to follow His example because when we live with humility, we start to develop inner strength.

With Grace,
