Proverbs 22:4 (ESV) - The reward for humility and fear of the LORD is riches and honor and life.

When confronted with their poor decisions or less-than-desirable behaviors most people would rather pull the wise, reasoned man down to their level of ‘madness’ than aspire to a higher level of reason.

he wanted to eat the food of angels not knowing how it would affect his heart not understanding all of the tangles he would be taken through after the start he wanted to keep what was black and cold (but the angels are warm and pliable) he thought he could be arrogant and bold thus found agnels’ food unpalatable stripped of pride he sought angels’ food again found it more digestable to the heart softened instead of broken by life’s pain and willing to accept an angel’s part

However high a state the soul may have attained, self-knowledge is incumbent upon it, and this it will never be able to neglect even should it so desire. Humility must always be doing its work like a bee making its honey in the hive: without humility all will be lost. Still, we should remember that the bee is constantly flying about from flower to flower, and in the same way, believe me, the soul must sometimes emerge from self-knowledge and soar aloft in meditation upon the greatness and the majesty of its God.

Far From Ordinary

You think you're ordinary, ordinary While I know something more You're extraordinary In so so so many ways..... You're beautiful and magical You're dream filled and passion fueled You're every hope and every wish Every wish I ever hoped for All of it, all of this and so much more You're wonderful and wonder filled You're happiness and fearlessness You're the brave face of courageousness All of that, yet you're still humble That alone makes you incredible Makes you extraordinary Far far far from ordinary

God used His freedom to wrap Himself in swaddling clothes. This is God’s sign: humility. What other God humbles Himself, restrains Himself to His own hurt on our behalf? Because God clothes Himself in humility, this must be the prominent mark of His representatives.

"No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to our education, to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude, and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, which makes us more worthy to be at peace"
