Humility

Jesus, in Luke chapter 14:7 is teaching about humility. It would seem then that it can be a learned behavior. He even suggests we can choose to be humble. There certainly have been occasions when I have been humbled, sometimes when I didn’t even think I was trying to exalt myself. I’m also pretty sure being humble is not just being shy & introverted.

So here are a couple of questions.
• What does our culture think about humbleness?
• Will humbleness get you a good performance review at work?
• Why do you think Jesus wants us to be humble?
• Do you ever think about needing to increase your humility? Towards God too?
• Do you have enough examples to learn from?

I have had some reasons to think about this lately. Thought perhaps you have also.
