Being humble (active, deliberate, difficult) is different from being humbled (passive, random, natural, easy).
Being humble is to acknowledge the goodness and omnipotence of God, and our own nothingness and unworthiness, then to serve God with all of our heart, might, mind and strength.
Signs of being humble:
- Having love for God.
- Trembling at the thought of sinning.
- Remembering Jesus Christ every minute.
- Consciously trying to keep every commandment of God.
- Faithfully fulfilling callings.
- Seeing all men as brothers, trying to serve them as best one can.
- Sacrificing our own pleasures and desires to the will of God.
Signs of not being humble:
- Getting angry.
- Criticizing or belittling others.
- Deliberately breaking the Commandments of God.
- Thinking one is better than others.
- Refusing to share our gifts and blessings.
- Sum of not being humble: Selfishness: I will feather my own nest only.
Being humbled can be a help to being humble.
