Do I spend time thinking about "the interest of others"? Do I get as excited about what God is doing in and through a friend as I do about what He is doing in and through me? Do I long to see others grow in grace and find success though it may have been my efforts that made them prosper? This is the measure of greatness, for we are most like God when our thoughts for ourselves are lost in our thoughts for others. Paul said it best: "Let each esteem others better than himself." Is that how we live?
~David Roper (Philippians 2:3-4)
