The importance of choosing humilityHumility is the letter H in the series of choices, and without it, no matter how much success you achieve by worldly standards, God's blessing is not upon your life.

Jesus as the ultimate modelJesus lived the most successful and joyful life in human history, making Him the perfect role model and teacher to follow.

Inheriting the kingdom of heavenJesus taught in the Beatitudes that the poor in spirit, or the humble, are blessed because the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.

Humility as the master key to God's treasureHumility acts like a master key that opens all the boxes of eternal treasure and grants believers the coming kingdom of God.

What does humility look like in the mind?Humility is an attitude of the mind rooted in the acknowledgment that talents, beauty, and intelligence are gifts given by God rather than self-earned achievements.

Learning humility from JesusBelievers can learn true humility from Jesus, who not only taught it through His words but also demonstrated it by stepping down from heaven to live among humanity.

The depth of Christ's humilityChrist humbled Himself for us in a way comparable to someone becoming a suffering dog to help a wounded animal, bridging an infinite gap out of love.

Receiving grace through humilityGod gives grace to the humble, which functions like the currency of heaven, empowering believers to accomplish anything within God's kingdom.

Worldly treasures are ultimately zerosMoney, beauty, fame, and academic success are like zeros on their own, lacking eternal value unless Jesus Christ is placed first in one's life.

Practical humility through caring for othersPractically, humility means looking out for the needs of others rather than exploiting them, just as Jesus befriended the marginalized and outcasts of His day.

Befriending the lonelyYou can display the humility of Jesus in your daily life by choosing to befriend those whom others ignore, including the lonely and rejected.

Make the choice todayYou do not need to wait years to make this decision; you can choose Christ and humility right now to ensure a life of eternal reward without regret.
