Sifirat HaOmer Day 29 ― Chesed of Hod: Loving-kindness in Humility

Day 29 ― Chesed of Hod: Loving-kindness in Humility

Examine the love in your humility.

Healthy humility is not demoralizing; it brings love and joy not fear.

Humility that lacks love has to be reexamined for its authenticity.

Sometimes humility can be confused with low self-esteem, which would cause it to be unloving.

Humility brings love because it gives you the ability to rise above yourself and love another.

Does my humility cause me to be more loving and giving? More expansive? Or does it inhibit and constrain me?

Exercise for the day: Before praying with humility and acknowledgment of God, give some charity. It will enhance your prayers.
