Luke 17:10 is an outstanding verse. Again and again the Lord told the disciples to take the least place, and not presume any position before God. While we're yet in the flesh of sin, any presumption is folly.
One day I saw that the gap between me and the most sniveling, putrid mess of humanity out on the street is probably less than the gap between me and God. If I show mercy, I'll be shown mercy. If I judge, I'll be judged. If I lift myself up, I'll be thrown down. Pretty simple, really.
