“So have I missed anything during my Twitter vacation?” I once asked my husband, half joking, half serious. Every January, I take an annual social media break. Whatever I call this—a fast, a disappearance, a protest, a spiritual practice, an act of self-care—I’m always astonished how the break makes my world feel quieter. It’s sobering to notice how I’m being shaped by the constant noise of life online. And I wonder how Jesus might be calling all of us to a better, humbler way.
You don’t have to scroll far on social media to see the human tendency to posture with pride. I see it when I ask a question and I’m already planning what to say next. I see it when my love for a person cools because I don’t like their behavior online. I see it when we slip into performative debates for the cultural currency of likes and comments.
In his letter to the church at Philippi, Paul had quite a bit to say on the subject of humility. He wrote, “Consider others as more important than yourselves” (Philippians 2:3), before drawing comparisons to Jesus Himself in verses 5–7. If this tempts you to empty yourself into silence or challenges your natural fighter instinct, please know this isn’t an invitation to be passive. Jesus was a man who frequently challenged power, debating religious leaders and touching the unclean and defending the dignity of people on the margins of life. So, no, humility isn’t about shrinking into invisibility—there are certainly things worth fighting for.
Perhaps humility is more of a posture. And if humility is our posture and Christ is our example, then we can walk in love. We can know how to respond when we come up against the messiness of the world, acting from a place of love and security rather than reacting. We can learn how to be still, when to sit and listen. We can know what actions to take against the darkness. We can honor each other’s humanity, acknowledging that even the corrupt and the cruel are loved by a God who grieves for them, who longs to lead them out of the darkness and welcome them as sons and daughters.
In life online and off, what would it look like to look out for the interests of others before my own? How might we learn to consider others with more importance, even when we disagree? What kinds of questions ought we learn to ask before we speak? And how will it empower us to know when our words really matter?
Questions like these might help to foster humility. And no doubt, we need the help because humility is a hard way. But it’s also one we don’t have to walk alone.

so good!
I am praying for a posture of humility and grace for myself but also for others.
I’m late here. But I read this on Friday, and then had a meeting with a parent go way south. I was not as humble as I could have been – quite honestly I don’t know how to deal with down right crazy.
Humility is not passive! It is practiced! I know I need practice. I pray adopt a posture of humility, grace, love, and compassion. I pray that I never boast or berate, but guide through love and empathy the Lord’s kindness.
My mom’s boyfriend died today. (I am 57… sounds weird to say my mom’s “boyfriend”… my Dad died 25 years ago.) He died from a massive heart attack. Please pray for her (Connie) and his kids (Amanda & John) and their children too. Thank you. I am not 100% sure if any of them are saved.
Prayers for your mom, and his kids.
Adrienne, I am so sorry. Praying as you requested. ❤
I’m so sorry to hear this. ❤️
Praying for all. Working on humility and taking a posture of a servant. To serve like Christ. I’m a long way from it and mess up daily! Usually with my mouth! I praying this Psalm: “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”
Psalm 19:14 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.19.14.ESV
I love how the devotional says humility is not passivity. There are some things worth fighting for! My mom says I have a heart for justice and she is right. There are times though that I get worked up over things I shouldn’t be worked up about. I pray for wisdom to discern what to fight for. I pray that in all things, I adapt a posture of humility and walk in love.
Good prayer and plan, Natasha! ❤
“Just one thing: As citizens of heaven, live your life worthy of the gospel of Christ.” WOW. Everything else is covered under that one statement. How would we feel if we gave our kids everything for a good life and they just squandered it away? This is challenging me, starting now, to live worthy of being called one of Christ’s followers, one of the citizens of heaven. Do I look like a citizen of heaven? would someone be attracted to Jesus by watching my life? Wow very thought provoking…
Yes, for sure that is a Title Statement for our life and everything that follows! And especially for how we teach our kids and lead by example!
Good morning sweet She’s. I have not be able to read the devotions and comments for a few days. Reading on my computer caused N/V. Ugh, not good at all. But I have caught up now and wow, such awesome readings and comments. So many of you have already put into words what are frequently in my thoughts. “God how can you possibly love these people that can be so vile and do/say things that are so far from God?. BUT GOD. He does, and even though it grieves His heart he waits for them and longs for their eyes to be opened. It’s hard to think that His love for them runs deep, just like His love for me. Father, I pray for each of us sisters, that you will help us to shine our light, your light, in this dark, dark world. And for those that need a “Tina hug” we will freely give it to them. And God, thank you for loving me, even when I am not so loveable. God bless you all sisters. Have a great day!
❤
Yes Amen! I love giving hugs to our jail ladies…that don’t get that contact in there, and it is so precious. Even when I hug one of my unhoused friends, it means so much to us both!
I’m sorry you had N/V.. what is that?
Happy Thursday shes. This part really stood out to me, Jesus emptied Himself. Emptied himself by taking the form of a servant though He was in the form of God (Philippians 2: 7). Empty: Greek word Kenoo, means empty , pour out, metaphorically: give up status and privilege. Paul also used the word “pour out” later.. even if I am to be poured out as a drink offering … (Philippians 2:17). This is really against our culture, that focuses on titles, status quo, levels of ranking, credentials and all. Be emptied so to serve. And another thing, everyone wants to be poured into but none wants to pour into others. It costs time and efforts. This is really against the human nature. What a beautiful and also very hard calling, even to pour ourselves into our children, when I think about it, it is an exhausting ongoing sacrificial work, to mold, to love, to build foundations of faith, beliefs, godly habits and discipline, to teach kids and ourselves be fluent in the various languages of love so we can show love and relate to the most difficult people. This also is hard :) But may we know that we can do all things through Him who gives us strength. I pray that the Lord will reveal to us who we individually need to pour out to, and what we need to be emptied of, so we can take on the form of a servant, washing the feet (not cute), for Jesus did not come to be served, but to serve with such humility. Be blessed dear sisters.
Good Morning, ladies! I am asking for prayer today. I am approaching the one year anniversary of my mother passing away and I was up until the late hours last night weeping and missing her. We lost her suddenly. I am a mom to a 2 year old and my husband and I are talking about wanting to have another baby in the soon future. I am sad to know that my mom won’t be here with him physically. Leaning on Christ has been a blessing for me in times of hurt. I am hoping you all can pray for me today! Thank you
Praying for you dear Sophie ❤️
So sorry Sophie, sending you hugs and prayers of comfort and strength.
So sorry, Sophie! Praying for sweet memories with your mom to override the void you feel in her absence. ❤
Prayers Sophie. My madre died unexpectedly 10 years ago, and I miss her so much. Sorry for your loss. It is hard to lose our mothers but she lives on through you and also you telling them about her.
Kelly (Neo) thank you for praying! Going into this meeting at 1 pm EST the reminder that humility is not fading into nothing is helpful. I fear I often tolerate toxic behavior at work for fear of making a big stink and also potentially from a desire to “be humble”. Maybe it’s not needed or good to do that. This reading today and this community is such an extra blessing in my life.
I hope and pray your meeting went well Victoria! It is a tricky line between standing up to toxic surroundings and humility! It delights me to see your sweet face now that we have met on FB! (I will forever praying for that sweet little boy of yours!)
Victoria, my heart goes out to you and other SHES who battle to do the right thing and yet struggle when things are off sides. May you sleep well tonight knowing God is on your side. ❤
Sisters, your personal reflections bless my heart! I, too, struggle with when and how to stand up/speak out versus staying
still and silent. May we continue to lean into the Spirit for direction. The more intimate our relationship with God, the more likely I will recognize His communication with me. Makes me think of answering the phone and recognizing the voice but not being able to positively identify the caller. Praying I always recognize God’s voice in this calamitous world! Sharing encouragement from Wiersbe again:
1:29-30
We can see three encouragements in these verses: First, these battles
prove that we are saved (v. 29).
We not only believe on Christ but also suffer for Christ. Paul called this “the fellowship of His sufferings” (3:10). Second, the presence of conflict is a privilege; we suffer “for His sake” (1:29). In fact, Paul told us that this conflict is “granted” to us—it is a gift! If we were suffering for ourselves, it would be no privilege, but because we are suffering for and with Christ, it is a high and holy honor. After all, He suffered for us, and a willingness to suffer for Him is the very least we can do to show our love and gratitude.
A third encouragement is this: Others are experiencing the same conflict (v. 30). Satan wants us to think we are alone in the battle, that our difficulties are unique — but such is not the case.
~~~~~
Thank you JULIA C, SEARCHING, KELLY NEO, Sharon JG,and others for the prayer recaps. I add my amen to each of them! ❤

Partial lyrics of Refiner by Chandler Moore/Maverick City
I wanna be tried by fire
Purified
You take whatever you desire
Lord here’s my life
Clean my hands, purify my heart
I wanna burn for you, only for You
Take my life as a sacrifice
I wanna burn for you, only for You
~~~
And Chorus from FIX MY EYES by King & Country:
Love like I’m not scared
Give when it’s not fair
Live life for another
Take time for a brother
Fight for the weak ones
Speak out for freedom
Find faith in the battle
Stand tall but above it all
Fix my eyes on You
On You
*For King & Country*
Oh….. to have Caller ID for Him!
How often do we, do I, want to hold onto our “power” or “titles” or “dominion” or whatever it is we *think* we have…this definitely convicts and makes me think. We need to empty ourselves of ourselves, of our pride and put on the obedience and humility as Jesus did. Follow our leader…
Yes, so true, and hard! Lord empty me and help me follow, and stand strong yet humble.
Thank you for your prayers for my mom. She is still having trouble, but I am hoping the treatment will turn it around and that the c-diff that has beer here for months will be gone.
Just wanted to give you all an update on our housing. We are still in our two bedroom apartment (2 adults, 5 kids). Everything is moving so much more slowly to build than what I thought it would. Ireland is in a major housing shortage and everyone in the building industry is so busy and not hurting for work. We have plans from the architect, but the company that we thought we would go with before had a year waiting list has now grown to a year and a half. We contacted another company who is getting us pricing, but that has taken weeks as well. They would be able to begin sooner on the house, though, but we are think they will be more expensive. We can only afford so much. I would appreciate prayers for that as well, but I know it isn’t the most important. We are squished and it is stressful at times but not life or death.
Praying for all the decisions and timelines and budget involved and for peace in the meantime. Thank you for this update! ❤❤
Praying that your mother’s treatment goes well for her and I pray often for your housing situation. Peace and strength in the waiting!
Good morning Ladies! I’ve read everyone’s comments and I see the unity, humility and selflessness in you just as Paul has instructed us!
This walk isn’t for the meek is it. To be humble AND ready to challenge the things that promote darkness
‘What questions ought we learn to ask before we speak?’ So true. This world needs Christ and His truth, not my words and opinions.
GM!
It’s a good lesson today in this political charged climate right now. Even a dear friend and I kinda had an exchange that went awry. It makes sense when one is not a christian—But when both are believers yet can have different opinions on candidates, it makes no sense to me. But I still need to be humble and loving. It is hard.
Lord, give us humility and love, to see people as you see them- a lost and hurting world that needs you light. Pour your Spirit out, Lord. Make a great wind move.
I just don’t know how Christians stay focused on the truth and the light without being in the word daily. They can’t, they become too acclimated to the world. They lose their salt, and become lukewarm. We need to be Christ FOLLOWERS, meaning “living” truly living for Christ, at all costs! Standing firm on truth, no matter what society is doing. Yes, we will stand out like sore thumbs, but it is time. Let our fruits be admirable though.
Abandoned by Ben Williams Hastings (and Brandon Lake! (a snippet of the words!)
I’m completely, deeply, sold-out, sincerely abandoned
I’m completely, freely, hands-to-the-ceiling enamored
Oh, my one-life endeavor to match Your surrender
To mirror not my will, but Yours
Oh, I’m completely, deeply, don’t-care-who-sees-me abandoned
Oh, I surrender all
I surrender all
I surrender all
When we are completely sold out, and surrendered. Many blessings to you today!
Amen! ❤️
It’s really sad that the righteous candidate (whose righteousness comes from God) is being slaughtered on all fronts. His stock went down horribly and I invested in it. I witnessed the battles he has to face, and so little compassion from so-called Christians. We know them by the love they demonstrate but it’s still very heartbreaking for me to see. Some people don’t even care about the cost some generals have to pay in order to serve and protect. May the Lord have mercy in these last days.
Good morning and Happy Thursday sweeties!!! I am so encouraged by ALL of you!!! Yesterday out-of-the-blue I received a text from my son during the day, but wasn’t able to read it till my lunch our. Funny…he started by saying it wasn’t urgent and to read later when I had time. It was a long message of ENCOURAGEMENT! and how GRATEFUL he was for me as his MOM! He had a customer come in pouring her life story, similar to mine and he so badly wanted to tell her mine and how far I’ve come! ITS ALL JESUS!! NONE of it is me. NONE. I wish I could talk to this lady and tell her she will be OK and to REACH out to JESUS! Please join me in praying for this lady whom I don’t know her name, but OUR JESUS does!
So sweet!! What a blessing that must have been for you. May God continue to bless you and the difference you have made and are making in the life of your children.❤️
Thank you Cathy ❤️
Paul has so many instructions for us in today’s reading…
*conduct yourself in a manner worthy of the gospel *stand firm in one spirit, as one man *don’t be frightened by those who oppose you *be like-minded *have one love, one spirit, one purpose *consider others better than yourself *look to the interests of others *have the attitude of Christ — make yourself nothing, humble yourself, be obedient *do everything without complaining or arguing (ouch!) *be glad & rejoice *be perfectly united in mind and in thought
__________
Such a “tall” order, especially in today’s world of “me first” and where we are constantly being told by the world – “you deserve” – when in fact we are to put ourselves last, and we don’t deserve anything accept God’s judgement! Yet He so graciously calls us to repentance.
___________
In times of anger over how the world is acting, how our country is acting and all the corruption and cruelty – I so often forget “that even the corrupt and the cruel are loved by a God who grieves for them, who longs to lead them out of the darkness and welcome them as sons and daughters.”
_____________
Father God, I pray that You would open the eyes of this lost world and turn them from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to You God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Jesus Christ.

Happy Thursday sweet she’s, have a blessed day! ❤️
I need to remember that He sees what is terrible and loves anyway! ❤️
I am having such a hard time sitting with the Word today. I’m going back to the cafe today and I am praying through my emotions of having to deal with my coworker. Dealing with him emotionally is so draining to me..I literally have to pray God helps me keep my mind in check. I don’t trust him, and I pray that he sees his actions have consequences to how others interact with him. You can’t ignore someone one day and be a sweet friend to them the next. The mind Olympics I am doing.
I don’t mean to come on here and complain, but man, I do really need prayers lately for this situation with my coworker and car situation.
I feel like I’m in a toxic relationship I didn’t sign up for.
Thank God, yes, I talked to the other party insurance. She could not guarantee payout for damages/loss, but she said she would try her best to help me. She was very kind. ❤️ and I felt the Lord helped me express how I was feeling, but remain professional.
Thank you for praying!
Praying for patience today! Sending hugs ❤️
Praying for you this morning Michelle – may God give you the patience to deal with this unruly (brother in Christ) co-worker. Also continued prayers that God will rule in your favor in the insurance issues. ❤️
Relationships like that are so hard! I’m sorry for the “ugh” it causes. Also glad the other party’s insurance person was kind, but don’t forget…if they were at fault they HAVE to pay (and you can even negotiate a higher payout if they try to low ball the estimate), so don’t let them take advantage of you ❤️
❤
On my knees for you.
❤️❤️❤️
I am praying for both situations, Michelle P
Why don’t you speak to a manager about your struggles with this coworker, and seek advice on what to do? Maybe a meeting between you, him, and a mediator (upper management) can be arranged so you can address the ongoing unhealthy pattern you endure? I think you need to address it, confront it (gently with love, wording), and not brush it under the rug. Prayers and Hugs dear Michelle.
p.s. i read this somewhere and like to share… you can still be a nice person and say no, you can still be nice and set boundaries, you can still love people without losing the best of yourself, you can still be a nice person when sharing how you feel :)
I spoke to my boss last week about it briefly and some changes were made. But as I expected, he seemed to brush my coworker’s behavior under the rug. He doesn’t see it because he only acts that way when he’s not around. Thank you for the advice though, I have tried with wisdom to share what I could with my boss. :)
Praise report:
My insurance called me while I was at work and told me they will be covering the damages. They shared that Instacart specifically is not in their policy that is excluded, so I am covered!! Praise God!!! It also was a good work day, and I tried to remain in good place and healthy boundaries with my coworker. Thank you for your prayers!!!!!!
❤❤❤ celebrating with you, Michelle!!! PTL!!!
❤️❤️❤️ God news! PTL!!!
That’s wonderful!! Yay!
Thinking of others before ourselves – so contrary to the world’s way of living. May we remember Christ’s sacrifice and humility just for us – boggles my mind.

So true, Searching… From HRT: “Why is humility the model Jesus set for us to follow? Because when you love others more than yourself, it makes for a better community. Acting selfishly benefits only yourself, but acting selflessly benefits everyone around you”.
Thank YOU sweet Searching!! This means a lot to me.
Thank you for your encouragement! I have such love and respect
for the “she’s” in this community! Your comments have challenged me and helped me grow over the 5 years I’ve been studying with this
community and I’m so glad to be a part!

“As citizens of heaven, live your life worthy of the gospel of Christ.”
.
Is that even possible?! O Lord, only through Your Spirit.
.
These passages in Philippines have sooo much to chew on. I’m overwhelmed by how much the Son gave up/sacrificed just to put on flesh, let alone suffering and dying for His ungrateful, rebellious creation.
.
Lord, have mercy.

JULIA C – thankful you free to engage with us again. Agreeing with you in prayer for your posts this week.

❤️ agreeing with your comment yesterday on the onslaught of Christmas by the world’s decorations etc. So many messages in the songs you hear playing – so surely some hearts are drawn to Him in the season.
❤️
Father break the spirit of pride in me and loose love and humility. In Jesus name, Amen
Amen, Aimee ❤️
Amen❤️
“We can know what actions to take against the darkness.” Gosh, I am really struggling with this lately. So often I want to argue and lash out at people who are promoting darkness. I do remind myself that they too are loved by God but I also think of how grieved God’s heart is by the darkness. But He isn’t surprised by it. I have to remember that. He knows what we are going through down here. He sees the darkness and corruption. I want to be like Jesus as I encounter the darkness and have a posture of humility. But I also do not want to be silent. It’s a hard balance between speaking up and battling darkness in Jesus’ name yet being humble while doing it.
Amen!
❤️
I feel you, I am called to speak up, but humbly! I think you would like the book we read in group “Put Your Warrior Boots On!” By Lisa Whittle. It was written of how to be strong and bold in today’s climate! It was written in 2016…she said she was turned down by like 16 publishers because they thought it was too vocal on the topic!! My group loved it! A big wake up call for Christians! That is one good thing that has happened in the last few years, it has awaken the ho-hum Christians!
Yes…agree and feel these words. Jesus, be our guide.
I need to remember this! He knows… and grieves… and loves anyway. This has been a recurring message… guess I need to be more like Him. ❤️
“Humility is not an invitation to be passive” – Thank you, Jen Yokel

“What I’m getting at, friends, is that you should simply keep on doing what you’ve done from the beginning. When I was living among you, you lived in responsive obedience. Now that I’m separated from you, keep it up. Better yet, redouble your efforts. Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent and sensitive before God. That energy is God’s energy, an energy deep within you, God himself willing and working at what will give him the most pleasure.”

Joining you in prayers dear Julia!
One morning, last year at King’s Table, a ministry for the disadvantaged in our community run by the local church, where I work, one of the guests looked sad and weepy. I asked what the matter was and her response hurt my heart. She said “I woke up this morning and felt lonely, I missed my family. I chose to move away, but this morning I sure could have done with a hug from my mum!” Without a second thought, with my apron on, (food and hygiene don’t like that) I said, “let’s sort you out a hug then!” And moved towards her.. she held on as tears run down her face..
That cost me nothing, absolutely nothing, but to this young lady it meant everything. We have been hugging since, anytime she’s in, she comes for a hug.
There is a good Christian lady, in her late 70’s, to be honest, a saint, who does God’s work without question. She comes in just to give a guest her medication, rain or shine. She was in the other day and saw the young lady and I having our hug. She said to me, ” that lady you were hugging, she was in the news for showing her bottom in public and was arrested, you should watch yourself”
My response was one of shock.. “Why”, i asked
I explained that I knew of the incident, but thst did not detract from showing her the love of Jesus here in this place or anywhere else. I told her I was not there to judge..
The ladies face changed and sadness took over.. she said.. “Oh my dear, you are so right, I should be more thoughtful..”
I tell you this not to boast, but as an example of how sometimes we can, through fear or the lack of understanding, get it wrong. I am no saint, I have judged, moved away from situations I have not understood, you know some of the stories..
.
BUT GOD..
Oh, BUT GOD, He loves me, ME! I know my sins, and wrongdoings and STILL He chases me, loving me, protecting me, providing for me.. humility is for sure loving as God does, but I think life is made easier when you have truly experienced it and can ‘pray it forward’ ( Brandi Gross) why not?
.
BUT GOD..
It is only through Him that we can be like Jesus in heart, mind and body.
AMEN.
Happy Thursday beautiful ones.. Be blessed in all you do today..
Much love.
Tina.♥️
Thank you Tina. God bless you today. Big hugs to you
Keep on shining, dear Tina, “like stars in the world, by holding firm to the word of life” (Phil. 2:15-16) ❤️
That’s so beautiful! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Amen
♥️
TINA ❤️ yes, the Almighty God loves us! So thankful! Reminded of the Crowder/Dante song God Really Loves Us.
–
And I read your comment for today before backtracking to read through yesterday’s comments … when I saw – ‘pray it forward’ ( Brandi Gross) – I thought it was a new song I hadn’t heard yet :)
Tina, we all “show our bottoms” from time to time – myself, more than I should. How amazing to know we are still loved by our Heavenly Father even when our bad side comes out!
lol, so true. I have too “showed my bottom way too often. Less now, thank you Jesus!! Thanks for the laugh!
What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing. We have an outreach ministry at our church for the unhoused and so often they can use a hug❤️
I liked the phrase “unhoused!”
I loveee you Tina!
