“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.” Phil 2:3
One of the lowliest of conversations to ever take place was between Jesus (God in flesh) and Pilate who held Jesus life in his hands. That in spite of the accusations levied towards Jesus, he simply responds “thou sayest it.” Jesus conquered/overcame any efforts of vainglory in his personal testimony. The greatest steps towards humility in self and growth in servitude starts by closing your mouth and opening your heart, then you’ll be able to see more clearly the needs of others and less of your selfish desires.
“Be cautious not to be swallowed up in books and wisdom, an ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.”
