“Humility requires trust. It is her core feature. Humility believes that I can trust God to teach, direct, and protect me. Humility also believes that God has provided others in my life to do the same. In this case, I am depending on God to tell me how the world looks and works, giving up my rights to notions I had before. I am “leaning into” his evaluation of reality, one I did not previously have or know. This is why we define humility as trusting God and others with me.
Recall that God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. So if a relationship or community lacks grace, that relationship or community is low on trust. One simply cannot nurture a realm of grace without trust.”
