DAY EIGHTEEN

Philippians 3:7-9

But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.

Humility doesn’t mean that we walk around with our heads hanging low. We humble ourselves simply by submitting to His greatness and recognizing our deep dependence on Him every day. There is nothing that surpasses the worth of knowing Jesus is Lord of all my life. Everything else pales in comparison to that reality. Thank You, Lord Jesus!
