A person is blessed before God when he or she humbles self to serve others, even if the persons he or she serves is arrogant. Humbly serving others destroys arrogance. The person who does not destroy his or her arrogance will be destroyed by his or her arrogance. If I will permit it, the humility of another can destroy my arrogance. Humble service defines life for the man or woman who places his or her trust in God.
Humble service refocuses life for the disciple who has become the victim of arrogance.
Service teaches us humility as it destroys our arrogance. It is impossible for a Christian to understand Jesus and be arrogant. The truth of humility is not seen in one's words but one's behavior. The reality of humility is not seen in one's involvement but in one's attitude. Humility is not a claim but a way of life that focuses on others.
