A truly humble man is sensible of the small extent of his knowledge, and the great extent of his ignorance, and of the
small extent of his understanding, as compared with the understanding of God.
He is sensible of his natural distance from God, of his dependence on Him, of the insufficiency of his own power and wisdom;
and that it is by God's power that he is upheld and provided for; and that he needs God's wisdom to lead and guide him,
and His might to enable him to do what he ought to do for Him.
Johathon Edwards

"God cannot bear with seeing His glory appropriated by the creature in even the smallest degree, so intolerable to Him is the sacrilegious arrogance of those who, by praising themselves, obscure His glory as far as they can."
John Calvin
