Consider Others Better than Yourself

Scripture: Philippians 2:3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.

Observation: It seems so much of what I do is out of selfish ambition or just to get credit and recognition. I compare myself each day to others to make myself feel better about myself looking for flaws and judging what they do.

Application: I am only here because God allows me to be and any gifts and talents I have come from him. He commands me to look out for others and put them above myself and I need to obey. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to serve God and the best way to do that is to serve others in his name.

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father I am yours and you deserve the best I have to offer. I offer this life as a living sacrifice may it glorify you.
