A humble spirit. Pleasing one audience.

QT:
Romans 15 - 1 Corinthians 1

[Romans 15:7]
7Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.


[1 Corinthians 1: 27-31]
27But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 28He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, 29so that no one may boast before him. 30It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. 31Therefore, as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord."

God spoke to me today about acceptance. We have to accept one another unconditionally, Don't judge and let your judgement get the better of you. Show love and concern as it is God's will in us. God also spoke to me about Humility. God often uses the weak things to shame the strong. This is very true and we should be humble before him. Don't boast about the things you do but instead, BOAST ABOUT THE THINGS GOD HAS DONE THROUGH YOU.
