Application questions:

We are o�en so blind to our own pride that Paul has to point out that we are to do nothing from selfish ambition, or conceit. How do you relate to Paul’s admonition? Why is it hard to view others as more significant than self?

Pride is very self-referencing. It keeps us focused on our preferences. How do you look to the interests of others? How would others who know you say that you demonstrate interest in their interests?

Re-read Philippians 2:6-8. Jesus became human, emptied himself out in service and became a sacrifice! How is the mindset different than your own? How are you moving toward being a servant and sacrifice?

One of the big ways that we can move from selfish, to servant is by BLESSing others. Who are you going to BLESS this week? How do you intend to BLESS them?

Let’s pray for one another:

Thank anyone who was vulnerable and crossed the line of shame. Pray for their need. Pray for the people that you plan on BLESSing this week. Pray for those who are struggling with pride.
