Philippians 2:3-5 NIV

3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. 5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.

If you want to flourish in God’s universe, always choose humility.

Here’s how Paul defines humility.

1Not using others to bring a sense of value and significance to yourself. Rather, humility wants to show other people their value.

2Not using others to advance your own interests. Rather, humility cares first about the interests/needs/story of others.

3And what will always ruin relationships is selfish ambition and trying to bring recognition and glory to yourself.

But all this is impossible if we don’t have the sense of our value and significance and future glory that’s already ours in the gospel of Christ. When we believe/trust the gospel, we don’t have to use others to get what we already have. We’re freed to be humble.
