Humanity and Humility
Author: Marc de Leval
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
In Humanity & Humility, internationally acclaimed surgeon, scientist and teacher Marc de Leval recounts with unflinching honesty and wry humour a career dedicated to saving the lives of children born with defective hearts. Marc's forthright account encompasses medical history, heroes, progress, success, failure and the remarkable resilience of the thousands of young patients who came under his care. It is a surprising and inspiring story. For more than 10 years, Marc was a Vice-President and Trustee on the Board of Chain of Hope, a charity working around the world to provide life-saving heart operations in countries where these children would otherwise not survive. To continue his support, £6 from all proceeds of the sale of his biography will go towards a fund to provide care for patients with heart disease as they go on to adolescence and adulthood. If you would like to make a further contribution please visit https: //cafdonate.cafonline.org/14407. "I used to swim at the same time as Marc every morning at the Royal Automobile Club. For years we just said "hello" and nothing else. One day we started talking and got to know each other. When I found out what he did as a job, what he'd done over the years and how many children's hearts he'd repaired or replaced it was probably one of the most special and humbling moments of my life. His story is truly remarkable." Sir Paul Smith. "Marc de Leval was an exceptional heart surgeon for children. I am so fortunate to have worked with him for 30 years. His incredible legacy is that so many of his patients are long term survivors. Infants and children on whom he operated and enabled to reach adult life to lead near normal lives. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to alter medical destiny and many of those with complicated hearts have serious medical problems which need continuing expert care, guidance, and even further surgery. In most of the countries less developed than our own, where the Chain of Hope has helped the "heart children" over the last two decades, there is no medical service created for this ever-increasing group of patients. Through buying Marc's book and by adding your own generous gifts to Chain of Hope we can bring the care needed by these long term survivors and continue giving them a future." Professor Jane Somerville.

Humbled

Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1087751748

Languages : en
Pages : 75
Book Description
How do I humble myself? Humility, according to the Bible, is not something we can just up and do. Both the negative and positive examples of Scripture—from Pharaoh to Rehoboam, from Josiah to Ahab, from Hezekiah to Manasseh, and even to Christ himself—teach us that humility first comes from the hand of God. He initiates the humbling of his creatures. And once he has, the question confronts us: Will you receive it? Will you humble yourself in response to his humbling hand, or will you kick against him? This concise, accessible study of Scripture’s humble-self language uncovers two surprising lessons about the pursuit of humility in the Christian—both what we cannot do and also what steps we can take.

Humility

Pages : 143
Book Description
If the summation of the gospel is to love God with all our hearts and our neighbor as ourselves, then the essence of how we fulfill that commandment is found in clothing ourselves in an attitude of humility. First we walk humbly with God; then we practice humility toward our fellow human beings. Becoming a humble person is God's will for every believer, but it is every individual's choice. If we do not choose to walk humbly but instead choose to exalt ourselves, God will humble us in a way that we would never have chosen. This character quality is so dear to God's heart that it is the key to walking closely with Him and finishing life well.

Angels of Humility
Author: Jackie Macgirvin
Publisher: Destiny Image Publishers
ISBN: 0768490456
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Pastor Paul is a young seminary graduate called as interim pastor to a small rural church. He is full of zeal, but mostly for self-promotion. He sincerely loves the Lord but his past emotional wounds leave him vulnerable and in need of attention and affirmation. He constantly frustrates his angel, Saldu, who tries to steer him toward a more humble attitude. Sarah Edwards is a new church member, a recent widow who gets saved at age 71. Unknown to her, Sarah has two angels to help disciple her and she is maturing rapidly in the faith. She is confused by her prophetic gifting, which leads her to offend some church members. She also prayer walks in front of Pastor Paul’s house. When his wife sees her pacing back and forth “talking to no one,” Paul quickly writes her off as a “wacko.” Through the lives of Paul and Sarah you will see that the really wonderful news is that living a life pleasing to God has nothing to do with gritting your teeth and trying harder (again and again and again). God rewards you for simple, loving, serving actions throughout your days, stepping outside your own concerns to truly see others in His name.
