There honestly isn't a lot to talk about here. This is a very short and rather stock-standard prayer of humility to God. It is only 15 verses long. But to be honest, it is not the shortest book I have read.
The whole idea of this book is humility. It's about kneeling down before god and admitting that you are a sinful, flawed human being. By the end of it, the author is begging for repentance that he does not likely deserve. That's pretty much the whole thing in a nutshell. It isn't a bad book, but it's so limited in theme that there isn't much to say about it.
That said, there's no reason not to read it. It's cool to have something like this as an example of prayer. It even fits in very close to how Jesus advised people to pray. So for that reason, I do recommend it.

For a KING to admit he is lowly and unworthy is the prayer of perhaps a worthy king. He is a man of power who serves rather than exploits.
ReplyDeleteGood point. It's really hard for anyone with power to be humble. Almost never happens.
DeleteTo humble ourselves is to judge ourselves and realize we are not the source of anything. We can imagine and create with God's gift but the glory is not ours ALL Glory belongs to God. Humility means to let the ego die and all that we do we should do with all our heart to glorify The Lord.
ReplyDeleteYep! Humble yourself! You have to. God will always be greater than we are.
DeleteWe must humble ourselves as He did. Salvation is given, not deserved. Our lives should be dedicated to the one who gave all.
ReplyDeleteSo many people fail at the whole humbling thing. Even when they seem to be, it's all just a show.
