A Rare Christian Grace
By T. S. Candee on January 17, 2025 in The Power of Prayer
Humility is a rare Christian grace of great price in the courts of heaven, and is necessary for effective prayer. It provides access to God when other qualities fail. Its full portrait is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ. Our prayers must be set low before they can ever rise high.
In our Lord’s teaching humility has such prominence and is such a distinguishing feature of His character, that to leave it out of His lesson on prayer would be wrong. It would deny a very important aspect of God’s character.
With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love
