What Does Walking In Humility Mean?

  • 0:00 - 0:02
    Pride's really a it's a tough one
  • 0:02 - 0:04
    because I'm kind of sure that if every
  • 0:04 - 0:06
    one of us is honest at some point or
  • 0:06 - 0:09
    other we lift ourselves above someone
  • 0:09 - 0:11
    else we kind of compare ourselves we're
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    trying to figure out okay how can I be
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    okay I don't feel like I'm good enough
  • 0:15 - 0:17
    but I'm better than that person all all
  • 0:17 - 0:20
    of this kind of of comparison thing and
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    the obvious opposite of pride is is
  • 0:22 - 0:26
    humility so I want to lobby for a
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    walking in humility a walking in a way
  • 0:28 - 0:30
    that we're not pretending because the
  • 0:30 - 0:32
    best thing for me is not to pretend that
  • 0:32 - 0:34
    I'm better than somebody else or not as
  • 0:34 - 0:36
    good as somebody else but just say Okay
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    God created me the way that he did as
  • 0:38 - 0:40
    long as I'm doing my best to walk in the
  • 0:40 - 0:42
    way that he is leading me last night I
  • 0:42 - 0:45
    was with somebody a friend who had who
  • 0:45 - 0:47
    had earned a doctorate in an aspect of
  • 0:47 - 0:49
    of law the guy was already an attorney
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    and then he spent eight years earning a
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    doctorate in international law and so
  • 0:54 - 0:56
    I'm struggling after I met with him I'm
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    going shishkov what did you do uh a
  • 0:58 - 1:01
    little simple Bachelor degree and
  • 1:01 - 1:03
    nothing beyond that this this kind of
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    stuff it's nonsense it's it's garbage
  • 1:05 - 1:07
    really because if I knew that that's
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    what I needed to do I would have done it
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    I was available I I've never shut my
  • 1:12 - 1:14
    life down and so all I'm saying is that
  • 1:14 - 1:17
    walking in humility means that I I
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    refuse intellectual Pride I refuse
  • 1:20 - 1:23
    religious Pride I refuse the pride of
  • 1:23 - 1:26
    Personality or of place or of ministry
  • 1:26 - 1:29
    or achievement or family or any of the
  • 1:29 - 1:31
    things that I might claim because you
  • 1:31 - 1:32
    know what I'm no better than you are you
  • 1:32 - 1:34
    know better than I am and that's the
  • 1:34 - 1:36
    beautiful thing is that we've been
  • 1:36 - 1:38
    created in the image of God so that God
  • 1:38 - 1:41
    could really make real to us our worth
  • 1:41 - 1:42
    and that that worth is something that
  • 1:42 - 1:46
    everybody walks with
