Humility is something you can't see in yourself, if you can it is pride. God produces a humility but never allows you to know it.
Billy Graham was asked once how he remained humble in the light of hs great accomplishments and his response was that it was like climbing a ladder up to God and the closer he got to the Lord the more wretched he became in his own eyes. Focus on Christ and you will not have to worry about humility.

Those who honor the commandments and his teachings. Those who keep the sabbath wholly. Those who repent all the time for their sins and wrong doings. True humility is being humble and letting go of all pride and helping and loving your neighbors. And another things is forgiving your brother or sister no matter what they have done to you. Saying your prayers individually and AS A FAMILY.

True empathy - being in the other person's shoes wholeheartedly - God first, others second, ourselves a far third.
Others are truly, intrinsically more imporatnt than self and it nourishes a kind, gentle, giving heart rather than self.

Great strength under the control of the Holy Spirit.
Sort of a compromise between :
"I can do all thing through Christ Who strengthens me."
and
"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time."

Realizing that you are a part of God just like everyone else. None better none worse.
