Respect is a feat that is earned and not demanded. Most people seek to be dignified through arrogance and pride. They deem respect as automatic just because of a certain accomplishment. To them,being humble through service is being too soft and weak, descending so low from your status. This has never been the case. Humility doesn't reduce our rank but rather increases it. Life is a lot like a game of tennis, the one who serves well seldom loses(John C. Maxwell). The lord elevates the humble but never delights in the proud. Let's strive to achieve success through humility and service.
