“Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave- just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many (Matthew 20 vs. 26-28).”
A couple of posts ago I talked about arrogantly quitting my retail job after graduating college. I thought I was above sales, destined for much greater things but after being unemployed for a year, even sales began looking good to me. During that time period God taught me humility, one of the most important things for a Christian to have. It was a hard learned lesson but when I got another job, I believed it to be a reward for finally mastering it. And I did, somewhat but there was still more to know; now I had to learn to be humble enough to serve.
