What I am learning from Jesus is…Humility is harder than it looks.
Matthew 18:1–5 (CEB): At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 
2 Then he called a little child over to sit among the disciples, 3 and said, “I assure you that if you don’t turn your lives around and become like this little child, you will definitely not enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Those who humble themselves like this little child will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. 

I want to be great in God’s kingdom! I want to be known for preaching great sermons that lead thousands of people to Jesus. I want to be a household name and have numerous best selling books. I want people to like me and be an influencer like none other. I want to be famous for Jesus and the name people think of when they hear the word Christian. I want to heal people with the touch on my hand. I want to be the greatest Christian ever…however, those things are not what makes a person great in God’s kingdom. Greatness in God’s kingdom has more to do with humility and becoming like a child. That is hard to do, to check the ego at the door and be willing to be the lowest on the totem pole for God’s glory. My ego wants to fight back, but I’m learning to be humble a little at a time.
