“God is opposed to the proud , but give grace to the humble.” 1Pet.5 “Conversations Within” ts 2/26/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Humility is just as much the opposite of self-abasement as it is of self-exaltation.” Dag Hammarskjöld
One way to get God’s favorable attention is when we stop desiring prideful attention from others. God’s favor is everything, and the humble have it. Don’t think for a moment that humility is thinking about how unworthy we are, it is when we stop thinking about ourselves at all. It is one thing to realize one’s shortcomings and another to appropriate the grace to do something about them.
