Being Humble
By: Gordon B. Hinckley
The Bible strongly emphasizes the importance of humility, highlighting it as a virtue that pleases God and leads to blessings. It encourages individuals to recognize their limitations, be gentle and patient with others, and avoid pride and self-exaltation. Humility is presented as a path to God's grace and favor, and a way to be lifted up by Him.
Several verses, such as James 4:10 and 1 Peter 5:6, state that God gives grace to the humble and resists the proud. This suggests that humility is a prerequisite for receiving God's blessings.
The Bible warns against pride and self-exaltation, stating that those who exalt themselves will be humbled, while those who humble themselves will be exalted
