HUMILITY
“For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” (Luke 14:11 ).
I’ll send in the morning
Humility is not a character trait to be developed, it is a byproduct of being with Jesus – Louie Giglio

For the Christian, humility is absolutely indispensable. Without it there can be no self-knowledge, no repentance, no faith and no salvation. – AW Tozer
Colossians 3:12 ESV
Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,
Proverbs 11:2 ESV
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.
How near are you to the Lord to be able to realize what Isiah realized when he was near to God?
MEEKNESS

What good are we, no matter how powerful, skilled, intelligent without surrendering to the master who will ensure that we reach our greatest capacity for HIS name sake?
FAITH
“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1).
“If you stand for nothing you will fall for anything”

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
Who NOT WHAT are you placing your faith in?
