Learning Humility

 Jonathan Leeman 


"'I have no method or technique to learn humility. I can’t tell you to get down on your knees and believe in prayer because I know you will soon be proud of that. There’s only one way to be humble...

"...and that is to look into the face of Jesus Christ; you cannot be anything else when you see him.’ That is the only way. Humility is not something you can create within yourself; rather, you look at him, you realize who he is and what he has done, and you are humbled."

From Martin Lloyd Jones.
