Thank you for your reply. Since I had posted my last Comment, I was reminded of another way to think of being humble or humility. That is, humility or being humble is not thinking you’re better than anyone else. After all, we aren’t better than anyone else, for we’re all equal to/with God. ✝️🕊

Better than we deserve. I have been reading about persecution in Nigeria, and while you are in my daily prayer, when I read of troubles in your nation, you are prayed for again. Be faithful to the end.

Hah! You and Donna (At The Father’s Feet) and I were all on the same wave length yesterday. Humility was my Bible Study topic, too. This quote is a really good one. Thanks for sharing and for visiting JanBeek. I have neglected my blog this week. Been busy catching up by reading others. Sometimes we gotta do that! Have a good day. See ya later here! ❤️👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
