Summary
My mom (aka Dorothy) is joining us on the show today to talk about humility, and I promise you don’t want to miss the chance to hear Dorothy share some wisdom.
It’s easy to skip over humility when praying for our kids because we live in a world that thrives on self-promotion and performance. But the Bible is full of warnings about pride and reminders that we are called to live each day with humility. It’s a foundation of our faith because it’s difficult to know your dire need for the Lord if you don’t have the humility to acknowledge it.
We will also talk about the importance of teaching our children to put others first, seeking to build them up and not just working for their own self-interests. That’s a big one when it comes to social media and raising kids who use it with humility and grace.
Join me and my mom today as we pray for humility for our kids!

| 0:18.3 | We are praying humility over them. |

| 0:28.9 | Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. And so I love that verse because, yes, it talks about humbling yourself before God that he will lift you up in due time, not ourselves, not to lift ourselves up. |
| 0:41.1 | Lord will do it. But right after that, he goes on to say, cast your anxiety on him because he cares for you. |
| 0:47.0 | And the fact that anxiety is the next sentence next to humility tells us so often that when we are not humble, it's coming from a place |
| 0:54.8 | where we are not at peace or where we're experiencing anxiety. And so we go the other road |
| 0:59.0 | from humility. And so we're going to talk out all things humility today. And as promised, |
| 1:04.2 | I have my mom with me. Hi, Dorothy. Hello, Cynthia. Is it funny that I call you, Dorothy? |

| 1:12.5 | My kids now call me Cynthia. |
| 1:15.3 | So I guess I now know how you feel because there was like Cynthia. |
| 1:18.5 | But so here we are talking about humility. |
| 1:20.7 | And you know, I sent you a list of topics that I wanted to bring people in to talk about. |
| 1:25.5 | And so there's like six or seven. |
| 1:27.4 | And you said you could speak into humility because you're good at that one, right? I do. that I wanted to bring people in to talk about. And so there's like six or seven. |
