Galations 6:3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
Satan will deceive man into thinking that he is much more than he is. Many have elevated themselves to a position way above that which God intended. We are vessels for His service and we should never get to a point to where we think we are the center of the universe. God is.
I am sure that you have noticed what my wife and I call "Special People". You know the type I am describing. They are the ones who get in the express check out lane with a basket full of groceries. The 10 items or less sign does not apply to them because they are special.
They are the ones who park next to the store in the no parking fire lane because the rules do not apply to them. Breaking in line is okay, because they are "Special".
I can't help but wonder why these "special people" don't think the rules apply to them. I wonder if they know how people feel about them when they act "special".
Jesus taught us to be humble. He taught us to prefer others above our self. If we will humble ourselves He will lift us up. Any other ideas we might have are merely deceptive.
