But the man who humbles himself will be exalted.

We know we are truly rumbled.

We so often find ourselves faulted.

We hate criticism.

But we must not let it get us down.

We rejoice in our own rightism.

Even if we are quick to put others down.

He beat his breast and said.

God be merciful to me a sinner.

Shall we just take it as read .

We’re no better than any other trier.

It is God’s  and humility’s ring .

…….

I am not grasping

Unlike the other man  there

But he is better .

See Luke 18: 9-14
