Humility – Let’s try to be very honest now. Do I (do you) really have true Christian humility? Do I (do you) really want other folks to get the recognition? A fellow felt a need for more humility in his life. So he set aside a full day – 6 AM to 8 PM in which he would go off by himself and eat nothing, drink nothing, say nothing…just to become really humble. At the end of the day, he smugly said to himself. “You know what? I don’t know of another person who has spent an entire day in being humble like I was today!” Ouch!
Hospitality – Is that one of your spiritual gifts? Read Romans 12:13 and 1 Peter 4:9. Have you ever thought of hospitality as being a spiritual gift? V. 15-24 – The Master’s Banquet. A very personal question: Have you accepted the invitation that Jesus offers today to you to join Him at His Table? V. 25-33 – Have you seriously considered the cost of following Jesus? When and in what ways has it cost you something to follow Jesus?
