STORY ON HUMBLENESS FOR STD 6 IN 1 PARAGRAPH
Answers
Bible Truth: When I put others first, God lifts me up.
While teaching one day, Jesus started talking about the Pharisees and describing how they acted. The behavior He describes is the opposite of humility—they do everything for show, they take the best seats and wear the biggest tassels, and demand respect when they walk around.
Jesus lived in the opposite way! He was born in a lowly barn, He put others before Himself, and He never bragged. Jesus tells His followers that “Whoever is the greatest should be the servant of the others. If you put yourself above others, you will be put down. But if you humble yourself, you will be honored.”
After you read this story as a family, ask your kids to point out the ways the Pharisees were not humble. Then ask them to reflect on their own motivations and hearts, and then pray together and ask God for humility like Jesus.
