Be lowly and meek

Let all things be done for the glory of God and not out of vanity.
Vain glory is like being a little child who is showing off to get others people's attention.
Greatness is not measured by how much people notice you nor by the amount of praise men shall heap upon you.
True greatness is measured by how well you know The Father in Heaven and how much service you have been to others.
Greatness is not measured by how much you have elevated your own life and standard of living, but rather is measured by how much you have elevated the lives of others and by how much you have glorified our Father who is in Heaven.
He who would be great, let him become a lowly servant to all others.
Seek to serve and not to rule.
Be lowly and meek.
