Why is humility important for serving God?

Answered in 1 source

Humility is important for serving God because it allows us to properly estimate our need for His grace and mercy.

Serving God requires humility as it acknowledges our limitations and insufficiencies, placing us wholly in need of His grace. Paul exemplifies this in Acts 20:19, where he mentions serving the Lord with all humility. In humility, we recognize that our righteousness comes not from ourselves but from Christ, allowing us to approach God with a genuine heart for service. This posture fosters unity, mercy, and an understanding of our role as vessels of God's glory rather than self-promoters.
