Romans 12:3 (NIV)
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
*Humility is a major part of obtaining what God has for us. First, we have to be humble enough to admit if there are things we need to clean up in our lives. We also need to be obedient with following the instructions God gives us to remove those things. This means seeking Him by prayer and supplication (meditating and standing on the word). Also, if u can show God He is top priority in your current state, u will find that He will be able to trust u with more and advance where u are today. Submitting ourselves to Him is part of the humility process. After all, if u can't handle a little then how will u act if u had a lot? We also have to watch how we compare ourselves to others, and whether or not we take their feelings and walking in love with them into consideration. Only being concerned about "me, myself, and mine" is not going to cut it. You are linked to other people and have the ability to make an impact on them. Be open to humbling yourself to be used by God, and I guarantee u will see the harvest in your planting. Notice that blessings come with instructions, and instructions are to be followed. Whether or not the process is complicated will lie in your ability to remain in faith, be obedient, and act upon humility.
