What is Our Calling ????
We have four callings :
1.... Humility
2 .... Humility
3... . Humility
4... ..Humility
Why do I say that: because if we are not humble that is the beginning of all our route problems in Christ.
John 13:14
14Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.
Pride is what holds you and I back . But humility is a vital part of our Christian character.
If our ego ( or pride) stands in the way , God cannot work in our lives . OUr ego is linked with pride and satan will tell us " Oh , you did a good job" and right away " pride" ..... thinking I did it without acknowledging WHO was there helping you do that made us prideful . Don't let satan get a foothold .
And of course pride can lead to arrogance " Hmmm --- I'm better than so and so . I did a better job"
But we need to go back to the cross and realize we are " humble servants" of the most High God .
OUr humility can be seen in our love of helping others .
If the King of heaven can wash feet, our calling is clear.
