To all you pushy -- in your face -- my way only --

...bossy people (you know who you are, I hope); LISTEN UP.  Jesus has something to say about humility.


Matthew 23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

Colossians 3:12  Put on therefore, as the elect of God, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

James 4:6  But He giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

James 4:10  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and he shall lift you up.

Proverbs 18:12  Before distruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honor is humility.


Jesus is our ultimate example of humility.

Philippians 2:8  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
