It was John Riskin who said, "I believe the first
test of a truly great man is his humility. I do not mean by humility, doubt of
his own power, or hesitation in speaking his opinion. But really great men have
a ... feeling that the greatness is not in them but through them; that they
could not do or be anything else than God made them."
A truly great man in history was memorialised today. We
are honoured to be alive in South Africa for such a time as this.
God leads the humble in what is right, and
teaches the humble his way. Psalm 25:9
Wisdom, patience, optimism and hope. Attributes we can all strive for.
