“The Master’s lesson is a publication from a friend; Fasinu Confidence. I have always wanted to say this;
in case you are yet to read any of his work, you’re missing out. He is a writer whose work I admire and
I’m always thrilled by his peculiarities and style of writing! The Master’s Lesson is a tip of the iceberg.
You’re not encouraging him by reading but you’re exposing and enlightening your mind to see life the
Master’s way. He is also a member of Goshen Academy and has a lot to offer this generation. The one
who reads is a leader when he or she utilizes it. Shalom! ”

FOREWARD
The need for everyone to be humble can never be over emphasized whether we are young or
old. It is a common saying that ‘Pride goes before a crash’. Technically, there is nothing we
have that was not received so why be proud? Humility is a unique quality that can make you
stand out where ever you find yourself. In fact, Jesus Christ, the Master, tirelessly taught his
disciples this outstanding quality. You too can learn from his lesson.
This book is a compilation of various thoughts on humility. Thoughts from whom? You may ask.
Well thoughts from the Fans of Gifted Hands Reality Organization. The various perspectives
from which they have harnessed their feelings as regards humility will give you more insight as
to why it is a quality worth cultivating.
I hope you learn a lot from these thoughts. Please, flip through and enjoy reading.

"THE SAGE ONE"
Consider the sage one
Life races he won
He considered himself not a superior
Everyone that comes his way is not inferior
A little bit of meekness
With all sort of mildness
With all deep sense of humility.
-EDUBIYI ESTHER
“Humility”
Humility
Is the expansion of one's real reality in a sweet, illumining and fulfilling way.
Humility
Is not the helpless surrender
To something or someone else.
Humility
Is not a frightened child.
Humility
Is real receptivity in us.
If we receive with devoted humility,
Then immediately our receptive vessels increases.
Humility
Is the secret of secrets
For self expansion,
For world inspiration and for world transformation.
Humility
Is the quality of having a modest or low view of one's importance.
It confounds arrogance.
Humility
Is a perceptive change.
It brings about a new you
-AKINBILE ADEJOKE
”THE VIRTUE”
Oblivious about humility, the rich fills his plate
And thus have the weak feed from tiny droplets.
He knows not the virtue that doles out kindness -he knows not
humility.
He is distorted to that path of transient happiness, yielding pride.
He sees not the virtue that loves, accepts and cherishes all.
He perceives meekness as weakness, and thus his unending game of
self-exultation.
He knows not the greatest of values... He knows not humility
#beHumble
-BEBE YAO PAUL
“WHAT CHANGED ANGELS”
Genuine Humility is not when you think less of
yourself.
It is thinking of yourself less.
Humility is being able to accept criticisms as
graciously as we accept compliments.
Humility makes us real and helps us to
appreciate and admire the good qualities in
others.
You know, it was pride that changed Angels
into Devils.
It is humility that makes men as Angels.
-ADELEYE VICTOR
“A WONDERFUL QUALITY”
OH HUMILITY, WHAT A WONDERFUL QUALITY;
EVEN THE MIGHTY IS NOTHING WITHOUT HUMILITY;
WHENEVER THERE IS ENMITY AND HYPOCRISY;
IF THE GUILTY IS WILLING TO SAY SORRY;
HUMILITY WILL BRING FORTH TRANQUILITY;
SO DON'T BE AN ENTITY FULL OF ENVY;
FOR HUMILITY BRINGS FORTH PEACE AND HARMONY.
-FASINU PROSPER
“LESS OF YOURSELF”
Humility is not is not thinking less of yourself
It’s thinking of yourself less
If you are humble, nothing will touch you
Neither praise nor disgrace
Because you know what you are
-OKEDI JENNIFER
“FERTILE SEED”
The seed of humility is exceptionally fertile.
It may not germinate plants of power and force.
But it does yield flowers of Sweetness, Grace, Modesty,
and Light.
- ADAUSU JOSHUA
“A GODLIKE QUALITY”
Humility is a godlike quality
Even in diversity
It creates harmonious entity
Preventing bitter enmity
Before a crash, the heart is lofty
Before glory, there is humility
Humility, perceived in divinity!
-OGBONNA HUMBLE
“SEED OF EQUALITY”
As no respecter of conferred status
Cancelling lines carved by unruliness and self ego
Yet breaking carved distances built by men regarding mere mortals
with prejudiced view
It stood so defiant releasing garments of servility
Preaching men into modesty
To yield forth the seed of equality
-FIDELIS ELIZABETH
“HUMILITY MATTERS”
What does it benefit a man to flaunt his pride and lose his
dignity?
Fighting so hard to keep his head high only to end up an
amputee
It could have been better but humans will always be filled
with anxiety
Will I be accepted or will I be thrown out by the authority?
Don't use pride to cover up your laxity
Because our dignity matter a lot to our posterity
So instead of arrogance and nonchalance, just bring yourself
down and maintain humility
Because just one “I'm sorry” or “please” or any form of humility
won't hurt but improve your morbidity.
-ABDULKAREEM ZAINAB
“THE BEST LEGACY”
A man crafty and lofty;
Cannot understand the modesty associated with
humility;
He sees it as an oddity causing enmity;
For him it is a case of irregularity lacking legality;
But honestly there is no doubtabilty;
That humility brings tranquility and equality;
That's why I say Humility is the best Legacy.
-EKUNIFE GIFT
“NOTHING WITHOUT YOU”
The father of virtues that beget respect
In you man has found the sweetest
A honey comb for the one who possess you
A fountain of growth for one who adores you
A man who has a quiver of you shakes the earth
One who without you will live in sheath
Humans are nothing without you
-AKOMOLAFE JOSHUA
“CATALYST OF GROWTH”
A virtue that has risen mankind
A friend of the meek in mind
A man of gentility in the highway of life
You are a catalyst of growth
A meal for individuals that want to grow
Beneath and beyond you're well known to excel,
To perspire you should be owned
-FIDELIS GRACE
“QUALITY OF THE SUN”
Humility is a godlike quality
Even in diversity
Creates harmonious entity
During bitter enmity
Haughtiness leads to destruction
And a painful crash
But humility is restoration
From an immeasurable clash
Pride and haughtiness
To the stupid one belong
Humility and Mightiness
Will the wise carry along
Humility, a quality of the sun
Humility, perceived even in the dawn
Humility, expressed when a baby is born
Humility, has won
From haughtiness you should flee
For it is like a withered tree
But with humility you will see
That is it wise to be free
I am better than you
In everybody's sight
Though this might be true
But not in the brightest light
In humility, strive to remain
In quality, you become new
This feat, try to maintain
And you will become like the dew
Humility, a quality of the sun
Humility, perceived even in the dawn
Humility, expressed when a baby is born
Humility, has won
-OGBONNA HUMBLE
“HER CONSTANT COMPANION”
Humility is very important because it keeps you fresh and new.
Humility is throwing oneself away in complete concentration on
something or someone else.
Humility is nothing but truth and pride is nothing but lying.
Selflessness is humility. Humility and freedom go hand in hand. Only
a humble person can be free.
Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real, the greatest
friend of truth is time, her greatest enemy is prejudice and her
constant companion is humility.
-ELISHA ANUOLUWAPO
“THE MASTER'S LESSON”
Staring through the depth of the darkness of their souls,
The Master could not help but get sad
That they were not seeing beyond their nose.
An argument here,
An argument there,
An argument everyday and everywhere.
Who will be the Master's most cherished,
Most loved,
In his mansion that is most furnished?
"Not you but I", they all argued
As they couldn't see eye to eye.
And so the master,
Diving into his ocean of knowledge that was very wide,
He fished out their problem; it was pride.
And so to teach them the opposite,
He took them to the inner chamber
And made them take their seats.
"Pride goes before a fall.
Just be humble and meek
And you shall get that which you seek;
Whether it attracts friends or foes",
He said this as he took a bowl of water
And washed their toes.
-FASINU CONFIDENCE
“IT LEADS TO LIFE”
Cornerstone of all virtue
Basis for modifying one's attitude
Opening the door of progress depends on humility.
Frowns at disunity
Precept to peace and unity
Greatness is humility that doesn’t need to be noticed
A virtue that moves us to quest for peace
Even if we are wronged.
Part of principles of becoming a leader.
Egotism leads to destruction
Humility leads to life.
-JODA OJUOLAPE
“FOOLED”
The words drop like honey
From the preacher’s lip.
We all yearn to possess it
So to it we leap.
Hands lifted and heads bowed
As we eat from the holy bowls.
Alas! The wind blew and our sights renew
And we saw how we’ve been fooled
For our preacher chewed in a dilatory manner the
holy communion
To be seen of all eyes as infallible
So we all went back home haughtier than we came
For humility cannot be forged.
-Whesu Henriette
“BE HUMBLE”
A thorned crown.
It breaks you down.
I searched every nook and cranny;
I found a few down to earth.
“Be humble!”
So my pastor cried every Sunday.
I guess you forgot too quickly;
Humility keeps lots of ‘ships’ stronger
And makes you go farther.
-IYERE JOY
“HUMILITY”
A generic quality passed on generationally
Some wear humility as a breast plate
While some stump on it and never look back
Yes, humility a very challenging quality to live by
Brings upon appraisal on humans
So, although might cost us a whole lot,
Let us boldly show this very quality
As soldiers and warriors gracefully carry their weapons.
-TAIWO OMOLARA
