Humility is an important way in which we can be god-centered. when we are humble we recognize that we are smaller than we think. When we are humble, we receive GOD's grace to do grander things than we can imagine.
Here we must remember what Jesus said " Go and sit in the last place and then you will be invited to take the first ...". What does Jesus advocate ? He says that to be first be ready to be last, in short be humble in life.
I love what Robert Schuller said "God can do great things through the man who dosen't care who gets the credit ...". How apt. We must do what is right and leave it at that. If we are really humble we will not be concerned who gets credit for it.
If we are doing things to please our ego, then we can't be humble. When we lack humility can we be near GOD. Think about it. Our ultimate goal is to live with our heavenly father.
Humility is the first step towards it.
