A humble heart's characteristics :
Awareness. Are you alert to the needs of others around you? Are you sensitive to their hurts, dreams, problems?
At some point. . . Yes I am, but it's very very vague. I need more sensitivity. I have to learn how to focus on them rather than focus on what they think about me. I have to be selfless. I know i can learn this. It's all in the mind. . :)
Availability. - Do you take so much time meeting your own needs that you have no time for others? You have to make time to serve.
Yes. . I'm too focused on myself. I NEED to think of others more! I have to forget about myself! I HAVE to forget about my depression. It's gone. IT'S GONE. AMEN.
Acceptance. One reason you don't serve lovingly is that you have a hard time accepting others. You look at their faults instead of seeing them through the eyes of the father.
Indeed, I began judging others when i became depressed. I have to look beyond the skin. This started when i when inter-cultural. It's time to see others in God's lenses. No more insecurities. Plain love. :)
Abiding. You can give time and love to others only as you depend on Jesus daily and draw your strength and wisdom from him.
AMEN! I have to really pray every morning for his strength and wisdom. Morning prayers are precious and beautiful just like the morning dews. . :) Such beauty in praying. I have to learn how to be a prayerful woman!
Abandonment. Jesus said that if a man is to find his life, he must lost it. (Matt 10:39) What He meant was that you should cease trying to call attention to yourself and isntead concentrate your concerns on others.
It's time to grow up. It's time to think of others above myself. I want to be like Jesus. :) I don't want to be famous. I want others to see Jesus in me. That once they see me or know me, they get to know Christ as well. I want to give Him back the glory always. i'm not a puppet. I have my choices and i choose to be used by God. it is a great honor mixed with great joy. Here Am I Lord. Despite my imperfection I choose to serve You. . Please., use me. :)
