Blessed are the poor in spirit

Per Matthew Henry's concise commentary for Matthew 5:3:

The poor in spirit are happy. These bring their minds to their condition, when it is a low condition. They are humble and lowly in their own eyes. They see their want, bewail their guilt, and thirst after a Redeemer.

I am not humble like Jesus.  I struggle to be poor in spirit.  Lord, help me with my failure and thank you for grace to be like you.
