Hanging Out with the Humbled: Psalm 119:57-64, Psalm 131, and Psalm 133

“Hanging Out with the Humbled” describes living in community with others who are seeking transformation into the humility of Christ. (Philippians 2: 1-11; St. Benedict’s Ladder of Humility, PDF below)

“Hanging out with the Humbled” describes both the means and the evidence of contentment in our journey with God in Christ.  Experiencing humility with God and in community creates and evidences contentment. Think about where you are in your own experiences with humility, community and contentment  as you read and reflect on Psalm 119:57-64, Psalm 131 and Psalm 33.
