When Jesus said, "Learn of Me," the specific attitude He emphasized was His humility. Indeed, among all those in heaven, the Son of God declared that the humble were "greatest" (Matt. 18:1-4). God measures spiritual greatness not by the height of our accomplishments, but by the depth of our humility. In this second manual of In Christ's Image Training, we will study the characteristics of meekness and why it attracts the attention of God. We will discover that meekness is the substructure and sustainer of transformation. We will better understand why the Almighty said, "To this one I will look, to him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word" (Isa. 66:2).
