This is a great verse to remember when you start thinking way to much about yourselves. We get so caught up in our own little world that we just don't care about others around us. We need to start looking at others interest and start helping and not asking for help. One major thing is, we have got to start caring and helping others without expecting a reward, just help people because it's what Jesus did and we are called to do as He did. Christ calls us to be humble and He said the humble will receive lots of blessings, but we should not be humble and kind because we want the blessing, but because we want to please our Heavenly Father. If we will humble ourselves and put others first, they will see that humility and Christ can use that to change their lives. I try very hard to worry about others interest and not my own and I do struggle a lot with pride, but Christ helps me and when I pull through the feeling is amazing. So I challenge you to worry less about yourself and start caring more about others, because in the end, it's worth it.
To God be the Glory!
