If only we could have the qualities of King Josiah! His heart was tender, he humbled himself, and with tears he showed his compassion.
In a true sense, Josiah revealed the traits of David. All we need do is read Psalm 51 to see how David poured out his heart before God.
And God, through David's son Solomon, called for the people to humble themselves, pray, seek God's face, and repent. (2 Chron. 7:14).
Jesus set the ultimate example of humility. Though He was perfect, He humbled Himself before the father and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. (Phil. 2:5-8).

Merciful God, I humble myself before You today.
