Day 26: Prayer for Humility and Service

Reflection: True greatness is found in serving others, not in being served. Jesus demonstrated this principle by washing his disciples’ feet and ultimately giving His life for humanity.

When we pray for humility and service, we're asking God to instill a heart for serving others rather than serving themselves. We're interceding for children who have been taught to prioritize their own needs above others’, for those who have never experienced the joy of service, and for communities that celebrate self-promotion over service. We're also praying for opportunities for children to serve others in age-appropriate ways and for communities that model servant leadership. Humility is not thinking less of ourselves but thinking of ourselves less. It's recognizing that we are valuable to God while also understanding that others are equally valuable. Service flows from humility and leads to fulfillment and joy.

Today, let us pray for servant hearts among children, for opportunities for them to serve others, and for communities that value service over status. May we demonstrate the joy and fulfillment that comes from serving others.
