The 25/26 school year theme is "He Must Increase. I must Decrease." Students, teachers, parents (and yes even the principal) will be learning about the virtue of Humility. We will be using John 3:30 as our biblical guide for the year. This is where John the Baptist says, "He must increase but I must decrease".
Isn’t it true that we are guilty of trying to play God in our lives? Admittedly, I love problem solving and putting systems in place to ensure efficiency and effectiveness. Time and time again, I hear God laughing at me as I try to control the things in my life. This is not only a reminder of the sinful world we live in, but also a good testament to the fact that we rely on God for everything in our lives and we need to trust Him.
The virtue of humility reminds us that we cannot do it all by ourselves. We need God! It’s as simple as that.
