Biblical Truth: Humility - Reflection
As we consider the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, we are invited into a sacred mystery—one that calls for both humility and transformation. Jesus commands us to “make disciples of all nations,” a task that can feel overwhelming at first glance. Yet, the beauty of this calling lies not in our ability but in our willingness to be vessels of His grace.
Humility is the soil where our spiritual growth takes root. When we approach this commission with a humble heart, we acknowledge that it is not our wisdom or strength that will change lives, but the transformative power of Christ working through us. The act of baptizing in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is a reminder of our identity and purpose; it ties us to a community that transcends borders and cultures. We are not just individuals on a solitary journey but part of a divine tapestry woven together by God's love.
Consider the moment you first felt the gentle nudge of the Holy Spirit urging you to reach out to someone in need or to share your testimony. In those moments, you experienced God’s guidance and purpose. Each act of obedience, no matter how small, reveals the sacred mystery of His presence in our lives.
Let us reflect on our unique roles in this great narrative. Humility paves the way for understanding; it opens our eyes to the possibilities of God’s work through us. As we lean into this calling, may we find awe and reverence in the journey toward making disciples, knowing that in our humility, His glory is revealed.
