Staying humble is very important in life. The bible talks about being humble, 7 -9He went on to tell a story to the guests around the table. Noticing how each had tried to elbow into the place of honor, he said, "When someone invites you to dinner, don't take the place of honor. Somebody more important than you might have been invited by the host. Then he'll come and call out in front of everybody, 'You're in the wrong place. The place of honor belongs to this man.' Red-faced, you'll have to make your way to the very last table, the only place left.
10 -11"When you're invited to dinner, go and sit at the last place. Then when the host comes he may very well say, 'Friend, come up to the front.' That will give the dinner guests something to talk about! What I'm saying is, If you walk around with your nose in the air, you're going to end up flat on your face. But if you're content to be simply yourself, you will become more than yourself." Luke 14:7-11
Don't walk around like you are the king of the world thinking that everyone is beneath you. Humble yourself so that the Lord can exalt you. It is better for the Lord to exalt you than it is for man to exalt you. When the Lord exalts you HE is able to keep you there and that is the kind of exalting that you want. Just know that God is no respecter of men, what HE does for someone else HE can do for you. Stay humble!
