I am the handmaid of the Lord, let it be done unto me according to hy word". By these words Mary accepted to become the Mother of Our Lord. A true example of humility, purity, faithfulness and devotion to God.
Soy un judío”. ¿Es que un judío no tiene ojos? ¿Es que un judío no tiene manos, órganos, proporciones, sentidos, afectos, pasiones? ¿Es que no se alimenta de la misma comida, herido por las mismas armas, sujeto a las mismas enfermedades, curado por los mismos medios, calentado y enfriado por el mismo verano y por el mismo invierno que un cristiano? Si nos pincháis, ¿no sangramos? Si nos haceis cosquillas, ¿no nos reímos?, Si nos envenenáis, ¿no nos morimos? Y si nos ultrajáis, ¿no nos vengaremos?
He hath disgraced me, and hindered me half a million, laughed at my losses, mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine enemies; and what's his reason? I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?
If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility? Revenge. If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example? Why, revenge. The villainy you teach me I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.
Sheer humility and love. Sat guru Mohanji prostrating at the feet of Sri Sri Sri Vittalananda Saraswathi Maharaj (Sri Sri Sri Vittal Babaji)

macromonday........ humility....... just a little bitty piece of a much larger mosaic wall that was constructed by an artist-in-residence and all the kids and adults at my old school. while the pieces were small and humble, the total effect was awesome. this was one of my 'contributions'
(about 3 inches/7cms long)
In September 2013, I was given the opportunity to shoot for a non-profit organisation called e.motion21. This is an organisation that provide an Australia-first, innovative dance and fitness program designed specifically for children and young adults with Down Syndrome.
This is a series of their rehearsal leading up to a dance event called Musicool. It was an eye opening experience having to shoot this event as I had never shot a subject matter relating to Down Syndrome prior to this. The most essential thing that I realised was that these kids and young adults are no different from what society deems as 'normal'. Everyone experiences struggles and it is the passion that keeps us going. For them, the unity through dance is the core of their passion and joy.
For the theme of humility, I chose a very humble flower - the daisy. And despite its humble reputation, it turned out to be really quite interesting and lovely. Well done humble little daisy!

“Whoever exalts himself will be humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted.” From Matthew 23:1-12
MEDITATION
“…Humility frees us to Love and Serve others willingly and selflessly, for their own sake, rather than for our own.
“…Do you want to be a servant as Jesus Loved and Served others? The Lord Jesus gives us HIS heart - the heart of a servant who seeks the good of others and puts their interests first in HIS care and concern for them.”
PRAYER
"Lord Jesus, YOU became a servant for my sake to set me free from the tyranny of selfish pride and self-concern. Teach me to be Humble as YOU are Humble and to Love others generously with selfless Service and Kindness."

Extreme humility supplication made by Holy Prophet (saw) at Arafat.
"O my Allah, You accept pleadings of human beings in anguish. You are well aware of my status and You know my secret. And there is nothing hidden from you.
I am merely a beggar crushed by calamities.
I have come to seek Thy help.
I am asking for refuge in your Protection. And am trebling with fear. Like a helpless beggar (Faqeer) I beg of you.
Like a sinner in humility and shame I supplicate. Like a broken man who is scared I spread my hands before you, whos neck is bent before you in submission and whos tears are flowing before you in hope. My body is bent in absolute submission before you in expression of my insignificance.
O my Allah, O the Mighty accepter of prayers, O the Best Giver I plead with Thee not to disappoint me in my prayer. Please treat me with kindness and have Mercy on me."
Humility, de Wim Mertens.
Cerca de mi casa se encuentra un viejo edificio abandonado que fue un antiguo molino de harina. De hecho, la calle donde está se llama Del Molino.
La ventana, en sí, no tiene ningún atractivo especial; es el enorme orificio que hay en una de las hojas de las puertas de madera que la cierran el que siempre me ha llamado la atención: el hecho de no saber para qué servía y el misterio que supone una abertura que da paso a algo que se desconoce son motivos más que suficientes.
A veces no hace falta un espejo para sentirse reflejada...

You get to a certain age and it can be humbling to realize you need reading glasses to see correctly... Thank goodness I did not get to all the water photos I was planning for this week before I caught my error...! Glad to not stop at the word between humidity and humility for this shot...
For this week's MacroMondays group theme of "HumiLity" (NOT "humiDity"), but did not submit it to HmM in favor of two other images...
This setup was frustrating in that I found out my daughter had sold our only large dictionary in this weekend's garage sale, and I had to scramble to find another dictionary of sorts...
何事でも自己中心や虚栄からすることなく、へりくだって、互いにひとを自分よりもすぐれたものと思いなさい。
Huwag kayong gagawa ng anumang bagay dahil lamang sa hangad ninyong matanyag, bagkus magpakababa kayo at huwag ipalagay na kayo’y mabuti kaysa iba.
Philippians 2:3
In Humility
Due to fallen humanity’s innate self-centeredness the world does not highly regard humility. Yet the Bible’s God-centered view of humanity and salvation places the utmost importance on humility.
1. To be humble means we will be conscious of our weakness and quick to give credit to God and others for what we accomplish.
2.We must be humble because we are lowly creatures who are sinful apart from Christ and can boast in nothing except in the Lord. We are dependent on God for our worth and fruitfulness and can accomplish nothing of lasting good without God’s help and the help of others.
3.God lives with those who walk humbly. God gives more grace to the humble but opposes the proud. His most zealous children serve the Lord with great humility.
4.As believers we must live in humility toward others, considering them more important than ourselves.
5.The opposite of humility is pride, an exaggerated feeling of self-importance and self-esteem in a person who believes in his or her own merit, superiority and accomplishments. The inevitable tendency of human nature and the world is toward pride, not humility.
Humility and greatness do not resemble, but are at times the contrary, of modesty and conceit. Michelangelo was often humble, never modest; always aware of his own greatness, and never conceited.
It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know of wonder and humility.
-----Rachel Carson
Proverbs 16:18 (Amplified Bible)
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
Proverbs 29:23 (Amplified Bible)
A man's pride will bring him low, but he who is of a humble spirit will obtain honor.
Matthew 23:12
Whoever exalts himself with haughtiness and empty pride shall be humbled (brought low), and whoever humbles himself [whoever has a modest opinion of himself and behaves accordingly] shall be raised to honor.
James 4:6
But He gives us more and more grace ([a]power of the Holy Spirit, to meet this evil tendency and all others fully). That is why He says, God sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but gives grace [continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it).(A)
finally if we're reading the above and thinking about someone else who lacks humility....hmmmm...

This column, unlike the one on the left, at the entrance door, is carved with intricate arabesque designs. The one of the left is left blank with no design. This is the architect's way of achieving non-perfections as a show of humility and deference to Allah.

Humility, Pause, Wake Up - I took this photo last week during an overnight stay in Sauble Beach, Ontario, Canada. My intent at the time was to capture 'something beautiful' that would support a blog post in the future. The silhouetted seagull is perched atop a building called The Trading Post - and I was staying in that Trading Post's loft. I returned home earlier this week, leaving my daughter behind with family friends - and the plan was to pick her up today at my friend's home.
Last night, The Trading Post was destroyed by fire. My daughter and friends are all safe - though everything they had with them has been destroyed. They are still there, collecting their thoughts and awaiting the Fire Marshall and police department's final verdict as to whether or not the building can be accessed and if perhaps SOMETHING of theirs can be retrieved.
I see this photo now differently. I see smoke coming, close but not yet there. And I see myself as the seagull - looking the wrong way, misinterpreting the scene before me and getting lost in the beauty.
