Humility Quote

'Humility is not just thinking more highly of others than ourselves; it is also thinking more often of them.'

As far as I know, this is my personal quote. It's something I've been considering as we go out to the neighborhoods and grocery stores to minister to the lost. I realized I have an amazing tendency to minister to people with an attitude of pride, which creates a huge pressure inside of me to see results. I'm learning that it is much easier to serve people with a humble heart, and let the results be up to God.

  1. You're fighting pride and I'm fighting jealousy. I pray you guys soak up every drop that is poured over you in the MorningStar school. We love you guys. - Bruce

  2. Yeah Bruce, I feel the same but we are going to start ministering here and I know I feel unprepared. Thanks Ashley for coming up with this way to keep in touch. This will be an encouragement to us the Body of Huntsville. I need more of the humility in my life. I see in so many way I fight pride, even offenses are usually from pride. May we all receive His Humility.
