“It is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant.” – Matthew 20:26
Have you ever received a gift that blew you away? Maybe it was a small but surprising gesture from a loved one, or maybe it was an extravagant expense like a new car! In either case, there is an automatic posture of humility when we realize what we’ve been given. And no gift on this planet can compare to the grace that Jesus gives us in salvation! As we relate to our brothers and sisters in Christ, we must remember the amazing free gift that we’ve been given, and in turn, freely give of ourselves to others. Remember – there should be a posture of humility when we realize what we’ve been given.
Do you live with an attitude of entitlement? Do you look for opportunities to serve your brothers and sisters in Christ?
