Caring for Others
- Jesus emphasized caring for others.
- Sharing with the needy (food, drink, shelter, care) represents caring for Jesus. (Matthew 25:31-40)
- Christian teachings emphasize caring for others, even in daily interactions (coworkers, customers, vendors).
- Caring for others should not be driven by ulterior motives, but out of a desire to serve God.
Avoiding Pride
- Pride is undesirable and leads to destruction (Proverbs 16:18).
- Boasting in the Lord, not oneself, is the correct approach (2 Corinthians 10:17-18).
- Recognizing blessings as gifts from God, not merely luck or personal attributes, is crucial.
Expressing Gratitude
