Random Thoughts on True Greatness

True believers recognize their neediness and admit their self-focus. Instead of seeking prominent position they come back to Jesus. 

Change your mind, check your attitude, so that Christ can refocus you on the priority of humble service. 

True believers focus on Christ's opinion so that they can serve Him appropriately. 

Forget about your definition of greatness and adopt Christ's true view so that you will not remain discouraged but rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 

Stop trying so hard to get the praise of man; focus on Christ and His opinion. 

Admit you are bankrupt without Christ and declare your complete dependence on Him. 

Focusing on rank and reputation festers comparison and rivalry;  clinging to Him who went to the cross fosters true humility. 

Eyes on self, earthly fight. 
Eyes on Christ, eternal perspective. 

Jesus loves you!
