His Perfect Humility – Happy Sabbath

“And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave—just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.” (Matthew 20:27-28)

From studying the life of Christ, we realize the humility required to be a true disciple. If Jesus came to serve humanity then our status is predetermined. Have we accepted our spiritual assignment to serve others or do we share the mindset of the two sons of Zebedee who approached Jesus with their mother boldly asking to sit on the left and right side of Jesus’ throne?

Humility is not an innate characteristic. The human heart is naturally prideful, always seeking status and recognition. Yet, humility is a trait that is required of every follower who desires to receive the Crown of Life. “For many are called but few are chosen.”

“Humble me, O Lord, that I may do your will.”

It takes faith, trust, courage, and perseverance to serve God in today's unstable world. Yet, we are never alone. Pray every day and pray often. Study the Bible. The Scriptures are a Love Letter from God to those who accept Jesus as their personal Savior. You will receive comfort, knowledge, and wisdom from the Holy Spirit. "I have loved you with an everlasting love." Jeremiah 31:3. Be blessed in Jesus' name. Amen.
