오늘의 성경말씀 : 누가복음 14:7-11
초등학교 교사인 내 친구는 종종 학생들을 인솔해 음악이나 미술 과목 교실로 이동합니다. 다른 교실로 가기 위해 줄을 서라고 하자 5학년 학생들은 자리를 놓고 서로 경쟁합니다. 일부는 앞의 좋은 자리를 차지하려고 서로 다투기도 합니다. 어느 날 친구 제니는 모두 제자리에서 뒤돌아서게 하고는 아이들을 다시 인솔하였는데 순식간에 줄의 맨 끝이 앞이 되었습니다. 아이들은 놀라며 “이게 뭐야?”라고 소리쳤습니다.
당신 주위에 예수님이 말씀하는 겸손을 갖춘 사람이 누구입니까? 당신은 언제 자신의 영예로운 자리를 내려놓는 게 어렵습니까?
예수님, 어떤 환경에서도 겸손할 수 있도록 도와주소서.

All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. [LUKE 14:11 ]
As an elementary school teacher, my friend often escorted her students to various other classrooms for subjects such as music or art. When asked to line up to make their way to another room, the fifth-grade students would jockey for position, some scrambling for the coveted spot at the head of the line. One day, Jenni surprised them by having everyone turn around and led them from what had been-just seconds before-the end of the line. Their shock was audible, “Whaaattt??”
When Jesus observed similar jockeying for position at a dinner table, He responded by telling a parable that undoubtedly surprised His fellow guests. Using a story about a wedding feast, He instructed them to “not take the place of honor” but instead “take the lowest place” (LUKE 14:8-10). Christ confounded their social norms by saying that “all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted” (V. 11).
This kingdom principle can be a difficult one to adopt, especially because our human temptation will be to still focus on “winning” somehow-choosing the last position now so we’ll be first later. But Jesus urges us to follow His example and look to Him for help in reorienting our thinking to see being humble, last, and lowly as truly being in the place of honor. KIRSTEN HOLMBERG
Who in your life embodies the kind of humility Jesus calls us to? When do you struggle to surrender your own place of honor?
Please help me, Jesus, to show humility in all circumstances.
