Humility is not perfection



 

Humility is not perfection

With people, well yes, at times we have to play it safe.  For we can all be mean and cruel, even if we may not see it that way.  With God, no, all fears must be addressed in the Lords presence, his holiness only allows for more compassion at our often feeble struggles to follow in his footsteps.  Humility is a difficult virtue, since it deals with the reality of who we are… it brings us to our knees in love and hope.    Humility is not perfection, no; it is the knowledge of our own imperfections and our growing hope in God's love and mercy towards all, even our enemies.
