"For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." — Luke 14:11
Have you ever found yourself striving for recognition, approval, or a place of importance?
In this episode of Everyday Joy, Ash is joined by Lydia to unpack Jesus' powerful words in Luke 14:11. Together, they explore what true humility looks like in everyday life, why our value isn't determined by status or recognition, and how we can find confidence in knowing that our worth comes from God alone.
Ash and Lydia discuss the challenge of resisting the need to promote ourselves, choosing to serve others without seeking personal honour, and trusting God to determine our place rather than striving to elevate ourselves. It's an encouraging conversation about surrender, humility, and the freedom that comes when we stop chasing significance and rest in who God says we are.
If you've ever felt overlooked, struggled with comparison, or found yourself seeking validation from others, this episode is a reminder that God's view of you matters most. As we learn to walk humbly and serve faithfully, we can trust that He sees us, values us, and is working out His purposes in His perfect timing.
Choose humility, serve faithfully, and let God do the exalting.
