You see, when the Bible encourages us to be humble, it means for us to simply recognize God's right to rule in our hearts and lives and to use our gifts to bring Him glory. It also means that we do not consider ourselves to be "better" than our fellow human beings knowing that God loves us all and that Jesus died for us all. So, while we do not gloat over our abilities, we don't deny them and bury them either. We let our lights shine and direct the glory to God (Matthew 5:16).

I guess pride and humility kinda go along with the "It's not about me" sermon Bob gave a couple of weeks ago. I was just thinking about a circumstance or two I've been struggling with for a long time and I have found that a lot of our problems start with pride.
I did not write that post. I copied it from a website and forgot to give credit.
