Each week at Helping Up Mission we focus on a Character Quality (see https://helpingupmission.org/character-qualities). This week it’s Humility and Kris shared this online and in Morning Devotions with the men of Helping Up Mission.

Before his downfall, a man’s heart is proud, but humility comes before honor (Proverbs 18:12)

My Take – So… here we are on March 25th, the 8th anniversary of my recovery journey…a journey that began at
Helping Up Mission. It’s all-together appropriate that Humility is this week’s character quality (see post below). Before my catastrophe, I’m certain that I would have been described as a “self-assured, confident ” (aka Arrogant) man who “knew where he was going in life.My prideful and self-righteous nature led me to many places (spiritually, emotionally, relationally, professionally) that contributed to my downfall. I was truly a “legend in my own mind”. I’m certain “humble” would not made it to the board on Family Feud, to the ? “Describe Kris Sharrar in one word”
Now, I am thankful for how GOD allowed me to be broken down and humiliated! Like in the dictionary…humiliation came before humility! And I am thankful for Helping Up Mission and all who pour their encouragement, support, prayers, and gifts to save and change lives!! To GOD Be The Glory!!
