Humility
WARRIOR Thu 30 Dec 2010, 3:38 pm
I know nothing
Everything I do know
I was taught or learned
But knowledge is a revelation
I do not know its columns
The foundation of wisdom ~
In my humanity I struggle
With my foolish pride
Stubborn to change what I know
For a new truth shown me ~
I think its not what we know
Rather our hearts reception
To what we are shown
Frail I struggle with things
To wonderful for me
It is easier to guard the familiar
Then to embrace the unknown ~
Faith is stepping out believing
Truth will show a way
Leading and guiding to change
When I accept my limitations
When I humble myself
Then I can receive knowledge
Which is meant for me ~
The Spirit guides, directs, protects
He talks to us through the Word
He deposits within us great measure
For success in all our ways
If I humble myself before God
Then the heavens open to me.

Thank you
We walk by faith and not by sight 2Cor5:7
Proverbs 3:5-6 (New King James Version)
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct[a] your paths.

Jeanne Guyon (1648-1717) wrote powerfully about the need for an intimate relationship with Almighty God, including this: “He who has a pure heart will never cease to pray; and he who will be constant in prayer, shall know what it is to have a pure heart.”
