Humility is not a “nice, religious emotion.” As a matter of fact, it really does not operate primarily in the area of the emotions. Sometimes we try to “feel” humble, and we check ourselves to see if we are really feeling humble enough. That is a mistake. Rather than being in the area of the emotions, humility is in the area of the will. Furthermore, it is expressed in action. We can and we must humble ourselves by a decision of our wills. No one else can do this for us—we must do it for ourselves.
