I recently read Humility by Andrew Murray, a small book crammed full of wisdom and incredibly eye-opening. My favourite quote from this book follows. It requires that I become nothing but an empty vessel, so that the greatness of God might shine through my life and fill it with God's glory:
"The highest glory of the creature is in being only a vessel, to receive and enjoy and show forth the glory of God. It can do this only as it is willing to be nothing in itself, that God may be all. Water always fills first the lowest places. The lower, the emptier a man lies before God, the speedier and the fuller will be the inflow of the divine glory.”
