Brother Clifford wilson Posted November 5 Report Share Posted November 5 Q42. (John 3:30) 1. In what ways are you observing Christ’s influence increasing in you? Jesu must be the center of my being, my mindset is this I am nothing without Jesus directing my steps. I can see the change in my core, The more I align myself with scripture my way is decreasing and his way is increasing. 2. How is your seeking of your own way decreasing? By receiving the written word of God and delighting in that written word. The more centered that I am in seeking Christ. The more He is there guiding me. 3. What are the biggest obstacles to humility currently before you? I am the biggest obtacle to humility, as I navigate my day I must be mindful that He, not me in my guide. As I walk this walk, I remind myself of who I am in Christ, and repent immediately if my earthly walk is not in agreement with my spiritual walk. 4. What are you doing to humble yourself in these circumstances that challenge you? I move forward in Christ knowing this, that he is with me speaking truth to my spirit man. I keep my lines of communication open even if I stumble. I try to place myself in the proper situations in life to allow Christ to grow in me. I seek places and people where I know that I can use my gifts to be a light to others less fortunate. I am looking for the harvest in his name, in my neighborhood..

Clelie Posted November 8 Report Share Posted November 8 I became more tolerant to those who do not hold to my faith in Jesus Christ but I pray for them. Dying to self in the power of the Holy Spirit helps me to put Christ first . To live among non believers. Be Christ like and show love when critised or judged. Keep quiet and avoid unfruitful arguments which will only make situation worse. Pray unceasingly for God to work out His plan for them and and for me.

On an ending note , I want to express my deep appreciation for the team of joyfulhearts for their patience, love and dedication to bring this topic on humility to enhance my love for God the Father and our Lord Jesus and His perfect plan for us on earth.

Lisa Wolf Posted November 14 Report Share Posted November 14 Q42. (John 3:30) In what ways are you observing Christ’s influence increasing in you? How is your seeking of your own way decreasing? What are the biggest obstacles to humility currently before you? What are you doing to humble yourself in these circumstances that challenge you? Terrific self-reflective questions! John 3:30 is the perfect verse, "He must become greater; I must become less.” As I focus more on the character quality of humility, I find myself more focused on patience, forbearance, and rejoicing in others. This study has opened my eyes to just HOW humble our Savior was as He walked on the earth. I'm doing my best to live as Jesus, "But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did. (1John 2:5-6) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
