One day a minister wrote a stinging reply to a caustic criticism of him which appeared in the local newspaper.

Before he sent it, he had several of his ministerial friends look it over and make coment.

One of them worte across the top, “Not suffiently redemptive.”
In short, he had won his argument and lost his man.

He had proved that he was right. But the price had been too high.

Someone has described HUMILITY AS THE “upward tug of God.’ The slave is humble and looks down at the dust.

The Christian is humble and looks up to a heavenly Father.

There lies the difference.

Matthew 23:12 “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
