Spiritual Vitamin:"Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility consider one another as more important than yourselves." Philippians 2:3
Challenge: It feels very natural to put ourselves first, doesn't it? Consider how you feel when someone cuts you off on the highway or someone gets the promotion that you feel you deserve. It's very natural to have a high view of self. Yet, this verse calls us to consider others as more important than ourselves. Why not try living like this today, with God's help? Christ is our example!
Prayer: Dear God, Thank you so much for the gift of Your Word. It is only through your help that I can live this way. Forgive me for those times when my interests matter way more than others. Forgive me for wanting to be noticed or talking to much and not inquiring of others or just being plain old selfish. Lord, You are the One who shows me a new way to live. I desire to follow in Christ's steps today. Amen.
