Humbled

Sometimes fictional characters try to earn favor by saying "I'm just a humbleman in search of...," when it is obvious they are the opposite. Truly humble people keep quiet about the good things they do and about their humble,or poor and simple, backgrounds. In the Bible, Jesus is described as humble because he was born in a stable, served the poor, and sacrificed himself without bragging about it — and he gave all the credit to God.
Jesus is the perfect example of humility.

Humility is perfect quietness of heart. It is to expect nothing, to wonder at nothing that is done to me, to feel nothing done against me. It is to be at rest when nobody praises me, and when I am blamed or despised. It is to have a blessed home in the Lord, where I can go in and shut the door, and kneel to my Father in secret, and am at peace as in a deep sea of calmness.

Assuming

Making assumptions simply means believing things are a certain way with little or no evidence that shows you are correct, and you can see at once how this can lead to terrible trouble.
The true problem with making assumptions, is the belief that they are the truth.
Some have the tenancy to only see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear instead of perceiving things the way they are.
Its important not to assume you know why someone does something without finding out why. It can be too easy to make a wrong assumption. A person can literally drive themselves insane trying to figure out other people’s motives. The problem with assuming is that if you assume wrong, you can create all kinds of unnecessary hurt and pain for both of you resulting in nothing but issues.
Why put yourself through all the drama associated with assuming the worst out of people? It does nothing but waste mental cycles and energy that could be used for something much more positive and productive.
  It always pays to know.
Communication is the key to knowing.

Faith and farming

Farmers often make the best ministers because they don't expect everything in one day.
They live next to God's creation and are dependent on the Lord. Farmers have a lot of patience and faith in the long process of waiting for the plants to grow or the animals to produce. They just have to trust the Lord and not worry about it.
God does the biggest part of the job: He sends the sun and rain and makes the crops grow, and He's the one who causes the animals to produce.
If there's any picture of a quiet type of personality, it's the farmer. City folks often make fun of farmers, but if the farmers didn't take it slow, they'd go crazy like many of the city people! The farmer's motto is "Go slow." The farmer is a perfect example of faith and patience. We should take a lesson from the farmer.
Why is it that so few people want to live on a farm these days? --Because it is hard work everyday and takes too much dependence on God. They have to leave so much up to the Lord. In many countries, people are moving off the farms in droves. God's too much in control. It's too quiet--"too dead, no action," they say. But if they took time to really look around and listen-to watch the animals, the trees and the storms, and to listen to the thunder--they'd see and hear a lot.
