Sifirat HaOmer Day 32 -- Netzach of Hod: Endurance in Humility

Day 32 -- Netzach of Hod: Endurance in Humility

Examine the strength and endurance of your humility. 

Does my humility withstand challenges? 

Am I firm in my positions or do I waffle in the name of humility? Humility and modesty should not cause one to feel weak and insecure. 

Netzach of Hod underscores the fact that true humility does not make you into a "doormat" for others to step on; on the contrary, humility gives you enduring strength. 

Is my humility perceived as weakness? Does that cause others to take advantage of me?

Exercise for the day: Demonstrate the strength of your humility by initiating or actively participating in a good cause.
