Living with a Humble Perspective

Reading: Micah 6:6-8; Philippians 2:3-11; James 4:6-10

Devotional: Humility isn't thinking less of yourself; it's thinking of yourself correctly through God's truth. It's the lens that reveals who He is, who you are, and whose you are. When you live humbly, thanksgiving becomes your lifestyle, not just a seasonal expression. You stop comparing, competing, and complaining because you see life from the Shepherd's pasture, not from pride's perspective. Christ modeled ultimate humility, emptying Himself and becoming obedient to death. God exalted Him because humility always precedes honor.

Today, practice walking humbly: serve without recognition, forgive without keeping score, give thanks in every circumstance. Remember, you didn't make yourself, you belong to God, and you're led by the Good Shepherd. That's enough reason to be grateful. Let humility reshape your perspective and watch thanksgiving overflow from your heart into every area of life.
