Status Updates From Humility

“People sometimes speak of humility and meekness as something that would rob us of what is noble and bold. Oh, that all would realize that this is the nobility of the kingdom of heaven, that this is the royal spirit that the King of heaven displayed, that this is godlike, to humble oneself and to become a servant to all! This is the path to the gladness and the glory of Christ’s presence in us.”

Murray begins his little book by emphasizing that—unlike the predominant narrative in churches—humility is NOT about realizing our sinfulness. Rather, humility is realizing our place as CREATURES. True humility is to place our entire dependence on God.
