Servant leader

St. Paul was talking to them about the role of the teachers like him and Apollos. He said that all are equal in the eyes of God. He did not regard himself any higher than a servant entrusted with the duty to faithfully teach and preach the gospel message. Can we compare our judgement with the wisdom of God's judgement? St. Paul said it is not for him to judge another, but to let God be the judge, as it is only God who knows and sees the inner thoughts of all of us. Let us live our lives with humility and love serving those who are in need without judging them.

1 Corinthians 4: 1-2

1So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God. 2Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.

Help us Lord to serve all without being judgemental nor with any air of superiority.
