"Man's chief care, his highest virtue, and his only happiness, now and through all eternity, is to present himself as an empty vessel in which God can dwell and manifest His power and goodness."

"We must seek a humility which will rest in nothing less than the end and of self; which gives up all the honor of men as Jesus did, to seek the honor that comes from God alone; which absolutely makes and counts itself nothing so that God may be all, that the Lord alone may be exalted. Until we seek humility in Christ above our chief joy, and welcome it at any price, there is very little hope of a religion that will conquer the world."

"What would happen if believers were to become permanently guided by the humility of Jesus?"

Ruby sent this to me just the other day, I love it. It is so true, it is our only happiness.
