Do I Esteem Others More Than Myself?

There was a time in my life that I would of had to answer that question no. Every now and then that prideful, selfish spirit creeps up. But the more I learn to serve others-the more I am serving the Lord!
It is hard to read people's posts about how wonderful ThEy are. To watch as they consistently maintain a 'it's all about me' lifestyle and do things that always cause hurt at any cost to the other person. These actions and words stretch out through an enormous crowd. But being all consumed with self, they cannot see the ripple it is causing, has caused or will be causing. I know. I have made several negative ripples myself. I have repented. I am forgiven. I have learned. I will teach.

ESTEEM.. to regard with respect or admiration

Phillipians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
