The Richness of Humility

READ: 1 Corinthians 3:1-10
I have heard it said, “It is amazing what can be accomplished when we don’t care who gets the credit.” This is certainly true of Christian service. Paul told the church at Corinth, “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase” (1 Cor. 3:6-7). Paul had learned that great lesson of the servant’s heart, has learned—it’s entirely about God. What we do is accomplished by His power and grace, and all the glory must go to Him.
God often uses lowly things, His purpose to fulfill, because it takes a humble heart to carry out His will.
Pride and grace cannot dwell in the same place.
