Grace for the Humble
He giveth grace unto the humble. (James 4:6)
Humble hearts seek grace, and therefore they get it. Humble hearts yield to the sweet influences of
grace, and so it is bestowed on them more and more largely. Humble hearts lie in the valleys where
streams of grace are flowing, and hence they drink of them. Humble hearts are grateful for grace and
give the Lord the glory of it, and hence it is consistent with His honor to give it to them.
Come, dear reader, take a lowly place. Be little in thine own esteem, that the Lord may make much of
thee. Perhaps the sigh breaks out, "I fear I am not humble." It may be that this is the language of true
humility. Some are proud of being humble, and this is one of the very worst sorts of pride. We are
needy, helpless, undeserving, hell-deserving creatures, and if we are not humble we ought to be. Let
us humble ourselves because of our sins against humility, and then the Lord will give us to taste of
His favor. It is grace that makes us humble, and grace that finds in this humility an opportunity for
pouring in more grace. Let us go down that we may rise. Let us be poor in spirit that God may make
us rich. Let us be humble that we may not need to be humbled but may be exalted by the grace of
God
