It's easy to make life just about ourselves, but humility helps us to guard against this mentatility.
Key Points:
- Here are three tips to help keep yourself humble:
- Surround yourself with people who will keep you in check and tell you when you’re wrong and give you good feedback when you’re doing well.
- Serve others. Always make a point to serve others in a variety of ways. Don’t always expect things from others.
- Stay before the throne of God. In the face of God, no one can stand proud and big.
