the eternal standards.

It takes more guts, effort, and greatness to:

- apologize and give in rather than to insist upon your own way
- be a servant, rather than to be served
- humble oneself rather than to elevate
- silence yourself rather than to insist on your opinion
- submit to authority rather than to assume authority
- forgive rather than keep a grudge
- initiate at the risk of getting embarrassed/hurt rather than to wait for someone else to start the ball rolling
- love unconditionally instead of being expectant of the rewards of my efforts
- pray for someone's happiness rather than to covet or harbor jealousy

MATTHEW 20:25-28
But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them. “It is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave; just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”
