“Humility is a doorway. The quickest way to promotion in God’s kingdom is to truly disconnect from the fleshly desire to promote yourself. Striving and pride will literally thwart you. However, when we humble ourselves, it allows God to trust us. We have to trust Him, too, because His timing is better than ours, and He knows better than we do when is the proper time and place to use our skills and abilities to His glory.”

“The omnipotent God summoned us from the void. By nature we are of the void; yet even from God we expect consideration and regard. Suddenly the Almighty reveals Himself in boundless humility. The vision floods our entire being and instinctively we bow in adoration. Even this does not seem enough but however much we try to humble ourselves before Him we still fall short of His humility. Prayer to this God of love and humility rises from the depths of our being. When our heart is filled with love for God we are wholly aware of our closeness to Him — although we know full well that we are but dust (cf. Gen. 3.19). Howbeit, in the visible form of our nature the immortal God described the likeness of His invisible Being, and thus we apprehend eternity. Through prayer we enter into Divine life; and God praying in us is uncreated life permeating us.”
