I’m reading Fenelon’s book called Let Go. In the very first recorded letter, he writes about having lowliness of spirit. He writes that lowliness is “essential” and “produces a teachable spirit that makes everything easy.” When something happens to us that destroys our pride, reveals our weakness or insufficiency, and brings us to a low place, it’s a time to rest in the lowliness of spirit that makes us humble, dependent, and ready to receive God’s power and peace in fresh ways.
