- Humility says, "More of you, less of me"
- Humility birthed true obedience. Philippians 2:8 "... he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death..."
- Being humble doesn't mean you're weak. It means you trust God enough that you choose not to rely on yourself/ your own understanding.
- Humility relates greatly to servanthood. You can't be humble if you're not willing to serve others and ultimately - God.
- Humility is not self-conscious or self-exalting.
- True humility is motivated by true love.
- Being humble doesn't make you weak. It makes you strong and have confidence.
- True humility is the opposite of pride. And pride is the ultimate reason for Satan's downfall. Think.

Humility
God has been very gracious by being with us in our devotion time in class. We've (I've) learned a lot about humility the past one week. Here's some precious truths about being HUMBLE:

Goodbye old year. Welcome new year.
Farewell 2011. Many things happened last year. Tears and laughters. Ups and downs. And it feels like time is passing by too fast. Had a pleasant time with the family lastnight while waiting for new year. Just the four of us. We didn't really do anything. Just watching the fireworks that are happening around our "kampung". It was magnificent. (I was actually looking and picking which one is my fave firework.)
I ended 2011 and opening 2012 with prayers. That God may be lifted up higher and higher in my life.
As I was thinking back of ALL the things that happened during the whole year. It was a tough year indeed. I have learned a lot and lost a lot too. 2011 is like looking myself in the mirror and seeing what actually I looked like in real life. Its been a busy year as well. With studies to catch up, I've grown more adapted to the tension in compeleting my tasks. Still, there are a lot more to be learned, polished, improved and acquired.
There is something that the Holy Spirit has put in my heart about even before entering new year. And I felt it today, again, during church service. And it is called HUMILITY. I have no explanation to this. But somehow, I am strongly reminded about being humble in godly way, not human way alone. I am just moved to share this. =) Clothe yourself with humility and put on a heart of a servant, filled with gratitude, kindness and love.
For anyone that accidentally or intentionally read this post, a very happy new year to all of u. May this year will NOT be a waste. May it be a memorable one, filled with joy, anticipation and love for God & for one another !
God bless.

So this is it. Welcome to the brand new year 2012.
