The Power of Humility
Humility is portrayed as a state of divine growth where every experience, whether good or bad, contributes to spiritual development. Murray emphasizes that humility allows one to receive everything as a blessing, akin to 'a dew of Heaven.' This state of being is described as transformative, turning the 'fire of the fallen soul into the meekness of the divine life.' By embracing humility, one can see, hear, and act through its spirit, leading to continuous edification and growth in the life of God. This idea is vividly illustrated through the metaphor of humility as a garment and girdle, suggesting it should be an ever-present aspect of one's life.
