When children come into the world, they already know life is about them. They need to be trained that crying won’t move the grownups every time and toys do need to be shared.
Paul was pointing out this fact to the believers at Philippi. You would think they would have known that principle because they were believers, but no, it needed to be stressed.
Phil 2:3-4
Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
It’s not about me but it is about others.
Think about it.
