October 21 - Humility

Good and upright is the Lord; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way. The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way.

Psalm 25:8-9 (NKJV)

Thought for Today: What does it mean to be humble?  Perhaps images come to mind of one who puts others before himself.  Maybe a particular individual comes to mind.  In this psalm, David makes a correlation between learning the Lord's ways and humility.  The humble He teaches His way.  So, then, perhaps being humble means getting outside of ourselves enough to realize that we are nothing except for who we are in Jesus.  True humility is utter abandon to God.
Do you want to know the ways of the Lord?  Ask Him today to help you to be humble before Him, that you may know Him in a deeper way.
