Humility is the Switch

Humility is the switch
That turns God's power on
Ever pride and faith conflict
As in meekness we're made strong

Pride and Humility
Ensign, November 2010

Pride is the switch that turns off priesthood power. Humility is a switch that turns it on…Some suppose that humility is about beating ourselves up. Humility does not mean convincing ourselves that we are worthless, meaningless, or of little value. Nor does it mean denying or withholding the talents God has given us. We don’t discover humility by thinking less of ourselves; we discover humility by thinking less about ourselves. It comes as we go about our work with an attitude of serving God and our fellowman
