Humble yourselves, therefore, under Godʼs mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 1 Peter 5:6 NIV
One of the most valuable lessons I've ever learned is that I am not irreplaceable in some aspects of life. I am also not the best or brightest at any one given thing. We all have talents, things we're great at and we should celebrate those. And knowing we may have the upper hand in a situation makes having humility a deliberate act on our part.
Sometimes in order to be the gentle peacekeeper like Jesus was means to let others be haughty and conceited. Don't join in their gossip or self inflation, but be humble, quiet, knowing who you are. No accomplishment on earth could ever overshadow who we are...children of the King.
Be that person who does not seek men's approval.
