Humility is a cornerstone of Christian character, reflecting a heart that is surrendered to God and considerate of others. The Bible consistently teaches that humility is not only about thinking less of ourselves, but about recognizing our dependence on God and valuing others above ourselves. True humility leads to wisdom, grace, and a closer walk with God.
These scriptures on humility encourage us to live humbly before God and others, reminding us that humility is honored by God and leads to greater blessings. As you meditate on these verses, may you be inspired to cultivate a spirit of humility in every aspect of your life.
