The Humility of a Child - (Matt. 5:5; 18:4)

Humility is not self-derogation. Humility is not self-exaltation. Humility is putting another before yourself.  It is being understanding of self worth but not considering yourself better than others. Children cannot see their own greatness but the greatness of others. That is why parents and family need to encourage them. They learn their value from us. We learn our value from God. (John 3:16) This does not elevate us but helps us to understand that we need to lift others up always. We also need to get out of the way. There is no room in God’s kingdom for the prideful.
