Too humble is half proud<\/p>\n
Hanan J. Ayalti<\/i><\/p>\n
I am tired of hearing the words, \u201cI can\u2019t.\u201d Jeremiah said, \u201cI am a child;\u201d but the Lord didn\u2019t pat him on the back and say, \u201cJeremiah, that is very good, I like that in you; your humility is beautiful.\u201d Oh no! God didn\u2019t want any such mock humility. He reproved and rebuked it. I do not like the humility that is too humble to do as it is bid. When my children are too humble to do as they are bid, I pretty soon find a way to make them. I say, \u201cGo and do it!\u201d The Lord wants us to \u201cgo and do it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Catherine Booth<\/i><\/p>\n
What we suffer from today is humility in the wrong place. Modesty has settled on the organ of conviction; where it was never meant to be. A man was meant to be doubtful about himself but undoubting about the truth. This has been exactly reversed.<\/p>\n
G.K. Chesterton<\/i><\/p>\n
I am well aware that I am the \u2018umblest person going \u2026 \u2018umble we are, \u2018umble we have been, \u2018umble we ever shall be.<\/p>\n
Charles Dickens, spoken by Uriah Heepin David Copperfield<\/i><\/p>\n
False humility is to believe that one is unworthy of God\u2019s goodness and does not dare to seek it humbly. True humility lies in seeing one\u2019s own unworthiness, giving up oneself to God, not doubting for a moment that he can perform the greatest results for us and in us.<\/p>\n
