Lowly

The Concept

The one who holds it all, low on purpose.

Lowly is not where you end up when you lose. It is where he chose to stand when he could have stood anywhere.

He who holds all things together — the stars, the atoms, your next breath — called himself lowly in heart. Not a pose. The truth about him, turned into an invitation.

Which means the low place stops being a punishment. It becomes the one seat in the room he has already taken.

— Matthew 11:29
