A Christian reveals true humility by showing the gentleness of Christ, by being always ready to help others, by speaking kind words and performing unselfish acts, which elevate and ennoble the most sacred message that has come to the world. The essence of humility is to be selfless. When we are humble, we love other people more than ourselves. When we are humble, we do things that make other people feel better. And when we are humble, everyone benefits because we lift each other up instead of trying to climb above them.
