That someone else is succeeding doesn’t mean you’re failing. Be appreciative of the success of others and praise the Lord on their behalf. When God sees that humility in your life, He’ll lift you; He’ll promote you. He exalts the humble; but He abases the proud. He never wants us to be proud. No matter what God does through us, He wants us to remain humble. We should be proud of Him, and what He’s made us. We should be proud of His glory in our lives; but we should never exalt ourselves above someone else.
Let the humility of Christ reflect in your character and in all that you do. Be that man, or that woman who genuinely appreciates and celebrates the successes and victories of others.
CONFESSION
By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life. Therefore, I put on bowels of mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering, seeing people in the same perspective that the Lord sees them, without disdain or hatred for anyone. Glory to God!
