Upgraded

And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.Matthew 23:12

First class treatment sure is nice. You should never feel entitled to it but when it does occur you feel special. It might be a first class seat on an airplane which is most common upgrade people relate to. The rental car companies occasionally may upgrade to a nicer snazzier vehicle for no extra charge and that too is special. Your hotel room may be upgraded to a suite from a studio. The feeling of luxury is what it is about.

Jesus never got upgraded yet He never complained. A humble servant born in a cattle stall lying in hay. Imagine the complaints today if a woman doesn’t get a private room at the hospital for her babies delivery. Oh my goodness feathers would fly. Be content in whatever circumstances you are in and if you surprisingly find yourself getting upgraded or promoted give God the glory. It is He who helps you find favor with those around you.

As you go about your day look for ways you can be an upgrade in a person’s life around you. Pay for the person behind you in the drive through is one idea that comes to mind. Be willing and ready to answer the call to upgrade those around you and not always think about yourself.

PRAYER:Thank you for upgrades in my life. Use me Lord to help another be upgraded. Show me creative ways to bless others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
