Philippians 2:3 NLT Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.
It’s easy to get tunnel vision and only focus on ourselves. We have goals and dreams we want to achieve, but if we neglect others while going after those goals, we’re magnifying ourselves, and that’s not good. Timothy 3:2 says in the last days, people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred.
There’s nothing wrong with going after our goals and dreams, but we also need to think of others better than ourselves. That means, if our goals and dreams have to wait to help others, so be it. If God tells us to delay our vacation to help pay the rent for someone else, do what God says. We’re to think of others better than ourselves.
We should understand that people aren’t actually better than us, but if we think that way, we’ll overcome selfishness and want to do more for people.
This life is not all about us. It’s about being a blessing to others. So, pray for people, give to people, check on your loved ones, and let them know about the love of Christ.
