According to Jesus, true greatness and service to others go hand in hand. If you want to be great in God's eyes, take the low, humble road.
Instead of fighting your way to the top, take the path
of humility. Wash the feet of others and accept low-level positions in your
church.
Ongoing basis pray
Prayer is a submission and humility act. when you pray you are actually telling him that you're counting on him. And you need him to be kind to you.
You need his help in overcoming the challenges you're facing."Show an interest in other people's lives.
A proud person is only interested in expressing their
thoughts and telling others about themselves. Humility entails taking a genuine
and deep interest in the lives of others. As the book of Philippians says,
consider others more important than yourself.
Don't be too convinced that you're always
correct
In fact, compared to the staggering amount of
knowledge in the universe, you (and I) know very little. Only God knows
everything, according to the truth.
Being convinced that we are always correct is both
arrogant and stupid. Lower yourself in front of the Lord by admitting that you
don't know or that you might be wrong.
Be quick to listen and slow to speak
A self-confident person is always eager to share their
ideas, opinions, and thoughts. A humble person listens to what other people
have to say while affirming that God has given everyone spiritual gifts.
