Humble
Jesus was all these and more -- much more.
He was not annoyed by the many people who followed him around hoping that he would heal them. Instead, he was moved with compassion and made a miracle out of the few loaves of bread and fishes to feed the people. That's not even what he came here for.
He came to tell us to repent so that we may be saved from sin. But before we believed him, we had to ask so many things from him and watch him die on the cross and rise again.
Indeed, he is gracious like the Father. He forgives.
We have been cleaned from sin. Forgiven.
The only way we can repay him at the very least is to live like him -- full of love, willing to forgive and do anything to please God.
