  1. What a great conclusion!

    "It is the fruit not of our achievement but of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22).

    It is the fruit of the gospel—knowing and feeling that we are desperate sinners and that Christ is a great and undeserved Savior.

    Humility ... flourishes when the gaze is elsewhere [not on us or it, but] — on the greatness of the grace of God in Christ."

    Amen. Soli Deo gloria.

    "For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen." - Rom 11:36
