Influence

DAY 3 OF 20

We live in a world that often says, “Look out for yourself first.” But God calls us to a different way—to live with humility. That doesn’t mean thinking less of yourself; it means thinking of yourself less. It’s choosing kindness over popularity, listening more than speaking, and celebrating others even when you don’t get the spotlight.

Jesus lived this out perfectly. He put others first, even when it was hard. When you value others above yourself, you reflect His heart—and it makes a bigger impact than you think.

Today, find one way to put someone else first. It could be letting a friend go ahead in line, helping a classmate, or simply encouraging someone who needs it. Then thank God for the chance to serve.

About this Plan

Influence

From family to classmates to neighbors to social media, you have the ability to affect those around you. You have influence, and what you do with that influence matters. In this four-week series, you'll be challenged to pay attention to the "butterfly effect" that you have on others and be encouraged for that to be shaped by the effect Jesus wants you to have in the lives of others.
