Look what I found!
WWOOOWW!! Ask God for a little wisdom and He just pores it on you. You have to read this if the past post spoke to you in any way. It is a quiz as to how humble we are in our relationships. My friend and cousen Selma always talked about brokenness and I never really know that it was just another word for humility. Here is the link.

Pride or Humility
My faults humility
I’ve been exploring the difference between real and faults humility. Since Jesus was washing feet with a towel and basin at the last supper, I’ve been asking about what it really means in that light. Here are some of my ideas, and I sure wish that you would add or take away according to your wisdom.

Pride
The inability to take a complement
Constant need to mention good deeds, even when no one asks
Rejecting help, service, or gifts
Putting myself down
Criticizing others to try to make myself look better
Ranking jobs
Doing good to be seen by others
Real humility
Realizing my desperate need for God
Being obedient and able to be led
Realizing my own weakness
Giving others the chance to fail
