Our Lord is faithful to show us the best agenda—His agenda. His remedies for our longing hearts are often very different from our own. Often an insecure person needs an example of humility and not retaliation to help them see the true way to confidence. People who walk in true humility are the most confident.
Sessions in Pain, pg. 113
Confident humility is probably one of the hardest concepts for us to grasp as beings born into a world of pride. Our insecurities keep us on a short leash, inhibiting us from serving or deferring to our fellow man. I encourage you during this Thanksgiving and Christmas season to choose to walk in Confident Humility. Serve others. Choose to be a shining example of your Savior’s humility.
He came to give. He came to serve

Just what I needed to hear. Thanks for writing this. 🙂 Confident humility is what I’ve always aspired to possess with God’s guidance.
Hey Sweetness, as we bow before God He will lift us up! Love you much
