Luke 14:7
Humility RecommendedIn this story, Jesus teaches an important lesson about humility while sitting at a meal with others. He shows that our words at the table should be helpful and encouraging, not proud or selfish. Even when surrounded by people who did not like him, Jesus used the opportunity to give wise advice. He reminds us that God sees everything we do, even in the ordinary moments of life, and wants us to act with humility and kindness toward others.v. 7: Jesus noticed how the guests at the meal were trying to get the best seats, hoping others would see them as important. He warned them that God watches even small actions, like where we choose to sit. We should not be proud or try to make ourselves look better than others (Luke 14:7; Psalm 39:1–2 a).
