What makes humility so desirable in the marvelous thing it does to us; it creates in us a capacity for the closest possible intimacy with God.

From 1 Peter 5:5-6:  “And all of you must clothe yourselves with humility in your dealings with one another, for ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.’  Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time.”

Monica Baldwin (1893-1975) was a British writer.
