Lessons from a Bed of Straw Part 1: Humility
from Glimmers in the Fog Podcast · host Kim Stiver

She had the most important ingredient for God to use her to usher in the greatest event in human history — humility. Like yeast added to dough, humility is the ingredient that triggers spiritual greatness for God’s glory. All the raw ingredients can be inside a person, but without humility, even the best combination of traits will fall short of God’s plan.
