True humility is not an abject, groveling, self-despising spirit; it is but a right estimate of ourselves as God sees us.
— Tryon Edwards
Tears of God’s Children
God sometimes washes the eyes of His children with tears, in order that they may read aright His providence and His commandments.
— Theodore Cuyler
Humility
Humility is to the Christian what ballast is to the ship; it keeps him in his proper position and regulates all his thoughts and feelings.
— Archibald Alexander
Humility
A sight of God’s glory humbles. The stars vanish when the sun appears.
— Thomas Watson
Humility
A truly Christian love, either to God or men, is a humble broken-hearted love. The desires of the saints, however earnest, are humble desires. Their hope is a humble hope; and their joy, even when it is unspeakable and full of glory, is a humble broken-hearted joy, and leaves the Christian more poor in spirit, and more like a little child, and more disposed to a universal lowliness of behaviour.
— Jonathan Edwards
