Unconscious Greatness

Wednesday. Luke 22: 24-30.

True greatness never finds out that it is great. It is too much taken up thinking of others. When it finds out that it is great it ceases to be great. If you have discovered that you’re humble, then you may know that you’re not humble. For humility is so absorbed with the dear God, and with others, that it never knows it is humble. But we’ll never understand this till weh’e seen the face of Jt’sns.
