Day 29
The desire to be great

" Whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant" ( Mark 10:43 )

- Jesus taught us to translate our desire to be significant into a decision to serve
- Humility is at the core of any stong relationship
- We cannot have a good and growing relationship if we're not humble because selfishness destroys relationships , and humility develops relationships .

" Whoever exalts himself will be humbled , and whoever humbles himself will be exalted "
( Matthew 23:12 )


Day 30
How humility handles ambition

There are 3 reasons everyone should have great ambitions :

- We are created by God . God's ambition is that every part of his creation lives out the purpose for which it was fashioned .

- We are given responsibility over this world .

"God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." ( Genesis 1:28 )

- We are made to reflect God's image in this world .


- It's not wrong to have ambition ; it's wrong to have selfish ambitions
- The problem isn't that we're ambitious , the problem is that we often allow pride to drive our ambition rather than choosing to let humility manage our ambitions .
- " Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. " ( Matthew 18:4 )
Jesus talks to disciples who are demanding to get their own way , and he uses the example of a child who must depend on others .


- Demanding sometimes gets you the little things , and it can keep you from the most important things .

- Sometimes when you demand harder , it only pushes you further apart . It's because while you can demand little things , you cannot demand the most important thing .
- Demanding will fool you ; it seems to get you what you want quickly , but in the long run it will have the opposite effect , and you'll lose everything you so fervently dreamed of having

Unless you become like children
- Jesus tells us that in a healthy relationship , those who depend ask for help from those they depend on

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. " ( Matthew 7:7 )

- Give yourself to the greater ambition of God's plan - a plan that begins with childlike dependence .
- Humility means you change your choice from demanding your own way to depending on God

God loves you - He made you
God has a plan for your life - He made you responsible
God desires to show his love through your life - He made you responsible in order to
reflect his image .

- Humility doesn't mean you let go of your ambitions , it means you give yourself to the greater ambition of God's plan- a plan that begins with childlike dependence . True greatness is depending on God
