Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. (Philippians 2:4)
Any business, any ministry model, that has the interests of the customer at its core will succeed
The mindset of Christ must become our motivation (Philippians 2:5)
He humbled himself and became vulnerable…(Philippians 2:8)
The reason people do not humble themselves is because humility seemingly makes you vulnerable.
Humility that is not directed in obedience to God is false humility. Lord Jesus humbled Himself in obedience to God.
Nelson Mandela in an interview with Oprah once said, “If you are humble, you are no threat to anybody. Some behave in a way that dominates others. That’s a mistake. If you want the cooperation of humans around you, you must make them feel they are important—and you do that by being genuine and humble. You know that other people have qualities that may be better than your own. Let them express them.”
No one has all the answers, and there is nothing wrong with admitting that there is always more to be learned. That’s an example of humbling yourself and becoming vulnerable.
Admitting your mistakes and taking correction is another example of humbling yourself and becoming vulnerable. Being teachable is one of the greatest examples of humility.
When leaders openly admit and learn from their own shortcomings and mistakes, it creates an environment and culture for others to do the same.”
“The truth is that none of us is perfect. Deep down inside, beneath all that glitzy armour there are some weaknesses that we really need to deal with.
Volunteers and leaders your faithful service is an offering to God (Philippians 2:17 NLT)
