Understanding Humility:
Humility is not a sign of weakness but a strength that allows us to recognize our dependence on God. As the Savior exemplified, "Learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls" (Matthew 11:29). Embracing humility leads to greater spiritual growth and a deeper connection with our Savior.
Developing Christlike Attributes:
Elder David A. Bednar has emphasized the importance of developing Christlike attributes, and humility stands at the core of such attributes. In moments of success and challenge, maintaining a humble heart allows us to recognize the hand of the Lord in our lives and the lives of others.
Building Meaningful Relationships:
Humility is a bridge to meaningful relationships. Humility enables us to connect with others without judgment, fostering an atmosphere of love and understanding. President Dieter F. Uchtdorf counseled, "The more we allow the love of God to govern our minds and emotions, the more we allow our Heavenly Father to influence our thoughts and actions."
