Pride tends to want to know how we are doing compared to others, and it thrives on the foolish idea that we are better in some way. Pride depends on comparison to shape identity. Humility doesn’t compare us to others. It calls us to see ourselves in the light of God’s standards. Humility leads us to realize how much we need God, and it understands that our need is no less than anyone else’s. Humility desires that we see ourselves as God sees us.
