* Humility is a potential part of temperance because temperance includes all those virtues that restrain reactions from our uncontrolled desires. Humility is a required discipline of restraining the lower appetites of impulsivity by refocusing negative emotions.

When we apply humility to the circumstances it helps to refocus our impulses into more productive spiritually healthy behaviors. | * Humility is a potential part of temperance because temperance includes all those virtues that restrain reactions from our uncontrolled desires.

Humility is defined as, "A quality by which a person considering his own defects has a humble opinion of himself and willingly submits himself to God and to others for God's sake." St. Bernard defines it as, "A virtue by which a man knowing himself as he truly is, abases himself (to the greater good). Jesus Christ is the ultimate definition of Humility."<ref>[http://www.energeticsynthesis.com/index.php/resource-tools/blog-timeline-shift/2468-humility-protects-us Humility Protects Us]</ref> | Humility is defined as, "A quality by which a person considering his own defects has a humble opinion of himself and willingly submits himself to God and to others for God's sake."

Humility – By knowing your place in the Universe and the role you play, one acts in humility knowing All is a part of the God Source. All is equal in the Love of God, and no being is judged better, higher or valued more than another. By acting from humility and in spiritual service, when you are called upon to do something as an action of stewardship, even if its cleaning toilets, in humility, you accept the job given. There is no self-entitlement given in spiritual service. Entitlement is a distortion of spiritual ambition and negative ego, and if left unchecked, the rapid karmic exchange will result in a “root downfall”. See [[Relationship Mastery Guidelines]]. | |||
