This memorial marker is not far from my home. It's one of many throughout the area. I live in Illinois, the land of Lincoln. Despite the egomaniacal ravings of our current governor the state and its people for the most part are a fairly humble bunch. One of those residents, our new President certainly is an example of humility so far.
Lincoln is a study in humility and has been a very real example of its implementation in public life since his death. Each of these monuments remind me as I drive past them that intelligent humility is possible in a world inclined toward greed and self-promotion.
I hear a message from Obama and it's this: The torch of thoughtful humility has been reignited. I hear a question too: Who will help carry it?
The Entry of Humility, the entrance to the Church of the Nativity. The door was reduced to its present small size (which requires adults to stoop upon entering) in the Ottoman period, to prevent horses and carts being driven through for the purposes of looting. As the name indicates, many believe this to be appropriate to the sacred site, as no one can enter it standing tall.
When you are older you will know that life is a long lesson in humility. - J. M. Barrie

I need to let God talk more often. I interrupt constantly, because I get the idea I'm better. Which is exactly why this counteracts pride.
I want to edit this later, when I get home and get Adobe. So never fear.
With humility, praying is something I do everyday, be it the short version or the long version. :) So trust that when I say to you, I'll offer you a prayer, I really do!
Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less ~ C.S. Lewis bit.ly/10vpKpb

I had to calm down because I didn’t want to raise my voice as well. I said, “You know, you are absolutely right.” I think he was expecting that I would argue with him or point out something wrong. But I said, “You are perfectly right.” And he was. But my question to him was this: “Was your attitude in the situation Christlike? Was your response Christlike? Did they hear the mercy and love of Jesus in your voice? Did they see in you His grace and forgiveness?”
There was silence, and then the conversation continued. I said, “Even though you are correct, would you still ask others to forgive you for your lack of love in handling the situation? Would you bend and break even when you are right?” Jesus did. He could have come down from the cross and proven He was God. But Jesus didn’t do it this way. And by the grace of God, neither did this brother. The next day, even though he was right and the facts were in his favor, he went and asked the others involved in the situation to forgive him.
It is this kind of submission and humility that binds us together and through which Christ is exalted in our lives and on the earth. What I am finding out about myself in dealing with people is that the problem is not outside. It is not the people who keep coming to me, pestering me, beating me, calling me names and telling me how to do things. The problem is that my own heart doesn’t want to bend and break and respond as Christ would, in genuine love and humility.
Let us strive toward this end. “Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma” (Ephesians 5:1–2).

The early 15c south door "humility" entrance, believed to probably be the finest carved door in the county. It has Tudor roses, crockets and rich canopies. The Knowles shield is set between the emblems of St Luke and St John.
Detail: One of the Four Doctors of the Church (Gregory, Jerome, Ambrose, & Augustine).
The South door is perpendicular and is probably the finest carved door in the county and one of the best in the whole country. It has tudor roses, crockets and rich canopies. The wicket is traceried and has signs of St Luke and St John. There are niches running from the sill of the door with mutilated figures of Saints and the Four Doctors of the Church (Gregory, Jerome, Ambrose, & Augustine). There is a lion at the bottom of the door and a stag at the East side.
