Philippians 2:3 (NLT) – “Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.”
Point to Remember: If we all practiced humility imagine what the world would look like and be like. If we actually cared about others more than ourselves imagine what this world would look like and be like. Because this world is driven by self and personal agendas, thinking of others is a foreign concept. As long as we get ours we can care less if you get yours. Me and only me is most people’s models. This is backwards living. God blesses us to be positioned to bless others. Better said, God sends blessings to us that they may go through us bless someone else. When you’re selfish you cut off the blessing. When you’re trying to impress others you become distracted. But, when you walk humbly before The Lord, He’ll do great and mighty things in, through, and around you.
