Allow no pride to dwell in you, but prove
yourself so humble and lowly that all may walk over you and trample upon you as
dust in the streets!--Imitation of Christ, By Thomas A Kempis.
Pride makes man to
always to demand respect from others. If someone disrespects them immediately
their anger will be kindled and they will abuse the person who disrespected
them with abusive language.
Humility does not worry
whether we are respected by others or not but we will respect everyone the
same. If someone speaks abusive words we will be silent and listen and offer
the same to the Lord.
People with pride cannot
deal with small problems and that’s why they end their life in suicide. People
with humility will seek God’s help and overcome every problem big and small.
People with pride cannot
go through persecutions, trials, sickness, and problems joyfully and that is
why we see people with pride always complaining about their problem.
People who are humble
will be able to endure every persecution, trials, sickness and problems with
joy so that through it God is surely going to reward them.
People who are having
pride are not ready to become small in front of others that is why they try to
fight so that they remain big. People who are humble will be able to make
themselves so low even if they are powerful so that God will surely exalt them
and take them to that height so that all people will be amazed.
God opposes the proud
and gives grace to the humble, let us commit ourselves to the Lord and
surrender our pride to Him and ask His help to become humble so that in due
season God will surely remember us and exalt us. When we exalt ourselves God
can bring us down and make us humble and when God exalts us nobody can bring us
down except us if we walk away from God.
