A church realized the importance of humility, so it formed a committee to find
the most humble person in the church.
Many
names were submitted and numerous candidates evaluated. Finally, the committee
came to a unanimous decision.
They
selected a quiet little man who always lived in the background and had never
taken credit for anything he had done.
They awarded him the "Most
Humble" button for his faithful service.
However,
the next day they had to take it away from him because he pinned it on.

"It
is no great thing to be humble when you are brought low; but to be humble when
you are praised is a great and rare attainment." - Bernard of Clairvaux.
Psalms 18:27 (GNB): "You save those who
are humble, but you humble those who are proud."
