Define humility

Proverbs 22:4 “Humility is the fear of the Lord; its wages are riches and honor and life.” Fearing God is a wonderful mindset.  In this case fear does not mean to be afraid of or to violently tremble at the thought of God.  Just the opposite—fear means to most lovingly respect, honor and hold our Father in a high degree of esteem.  You and I need to place God far above ourselves as we need Him much more than He needs us; however, His desire to bless you and me is of ultra importance to Him.  What a phenomenal God we honor.
