Honour comes from
humility! Humility is a word that we do not hear much of in these days. People
are told to “take pride” in what they do or who they are. I believe that “taking
pride” is not a Biblical way to live. The Bible exhorts us to live lives in
humility and that there is a special Blessing from God for humble people. We
need to concentrate on humility and not on pride.
