HUMILITY

(John Mason's Spiritual Sayings)

"Learn from Me — for I am gentle and humble in heart." Matthew 11:29

None so high and glorious as Christ; yet none so gentle and humble.

To be low is the safest and loveliest posture for sinful creatures.
It is the creature's honor to abase himself before the most high God.
 

If men did but know themselves more, they would be more humble.
 

Those who are humble, are content and thankful.
A humble spirit is a charitable and quiet spirit.
 

When Paul was a Pharisee, he thought he was blameless.
When he was a Christian, he thought he was the chief of sinners.
 

Neither all the devils in Hell nor all the temptations of the world can hurt that man who keeps himself humble and depending on Christ. 

"All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." 1 Peter 5:5
