Greatness in Humility

Humility

Giving your post up to somebody is not a sign of weakness. When you have served your time in that God appointed seat, you accept it, wholeheartedly. That's how a mature Christian thinks. Because it is not the power you have while you are there but what you can or have done for His Kingdom. And you stepping down is not like this world's definition of taking a rest. You are still working. You are still part of the body.

He foreknew, predestined, and called us. We will be justified and glorified in the end. That's the plan. That's the promise. For we know His plans, and his plans are greater than ours.

So, train as much as you can. Pass on your knowledge to others. Strengthen their faith as you declare yours. This is the G12 Philosophy. And I hope that it gets to this part of the world.

(Ref: Mark 1:1-8)

Luke 7:18-28
   - John didn't know of Jesus' divine purpose when he spoke about that someone who is greater than he
   - John followed God in humility
   - We can live out our greatness by humbly serving God and His people (Tom Felten)
