When you are feeling too strong, better be careful.  Paul said, “Wherefore, let him that thinketh he standeth take heed, lest he fall” (1 Cor. 10:12).

And when you think everyone loves and respects you, better be careful.  The Lord said, “Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets” (Lk , 6: 26).

When you think you are better than someone else because you are faithfully discharging your duties, better be careful.  The Lord said, “So likewise, when ye have done all those things … say, We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which was our duty to do” (Lk , 17:10).
