Acting in humility

in hive-108514 •  3 years ago 

Being humble goes far beyond a way of speaking or dressing, humility is a lifestyle that is born directly from within and is reflected on the outside, perhaps physically, in our way of speaking and acting.

The truth is that humility cannot be assumed but lived, demonstrating with actions what we are is more important than trying to teach it with words, let's see what this verse says: Philippians 2: 3 Do nothing out of contention or out of pride; rather, with humility, each esteeming the others as superior to himself.

Many are those who act only to contradict others, or to prove that they are right, others act to raise their ego, so that others see how great they can do, and this is far from humility, if you do a good work but those actions are the ones you are based on, because this in the eyes of God has no merit.

Before overestimating ourselves, we must do it with others, esteem them as if they were as or more valuable than us, because humility in that consists, the bible says that we do not have a higher concept of ourselves, than we should have, it is It is true that we must love ourselves, but do not forget that we must also love our neighbor as ourselves.

It is necessary to put aside our own desires and move in love for others.

Our flesh must die, we must put aside the love of recognition and love what God cares about, which is his creation. Let's stop acting as if we have the power, as if we know everything, and let's start learning from those little details of life, believe it or not sometimes we can have lessons from the people we least expect.

Open your mind because God can use anyone to bring you back from a mistake. Let us be humble as Jesus teaches us through his word what was his behavior on earth, so we must be the children of God, full of humility, avoiding strife and pride.
