Day 8 "Yet You Wear Humility"
The Humble Servant
Good Morning Beauties!
“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh rather, serve one another humbly in love.” Galatians 5:13 (NIV)
How do you describe humility? What does being humble look like? Can you think of a great example from your life or perhaps the life of someone close to you? Selah.
I once heard it explained this way…it’s not thinking less of yourself, it’s not thinking of yourself at all. Can you imagine going a day without thinking of yourself? Your needs, your desires, your ambition? How do we turn off the “me” switch? Selah.
“ For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Mark 10:45 (NIV)
Jesus shows us clearly how to live a life of humility. He put others (you and me) above His own desires and was willing to give His very life for us. What does this kind of humility look like for you? Is God asking you to walk in even greater humility as you fulfill your purpose and life of service? Selah.
Are we willing to go back to the basics and follow the two commandments of Jesus? Loving Him and loving others? Are we willing to bow our knees and pray for the needs of others and our world before thinking of ourselves? I am. Will you join me? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
