Do Nothing from selfishness

in #steemchurch5 years ago

Good day my fellow brethren of the church, peace of the Lord. Today I'll be sharing a little message, I hope it bless us.

Philippians 2:3,4

Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.

“Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind

among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.”

The above spiritual admonition was demonstrated by a very important personality who attended a social party and discovered that his driver was served with something inferior to his own. He told his host that the driver and his humble self are working towards the same goal with different roles, so both of them should be served equally.HabIt of respect is shown when we appreciate others by not seeing ourselves as too important to open our hearts to people of different background. It happens by giving the gift of smile and respect to everyone we meet and showing it in our eyes. Johann Goethe said, “Treat a man as he is and he will remain as he is. Treat a man as he can and should be and he will become as he can and should be. ” The way you see a man is the way he will see himself. People respond in thoughts and action to the level of respect they are given, honouring the potential in people draws out the best and highest in them.

Prayer: Lord, give me a selfless heart that promotes the well-being of others around me, in Jesus name Amen
