Do Nothing Out Of Selfish Ambition Or Vain Conceit

Our cat Osha loves to lay right in the middle of the floor, and he will not budge even if we threaten to step on him. This is because he knows we won't follow through. I'm certain Osha does this on purpose just to bug us.

"I'm not moving from this position; you can walk around me."

The Bible says we are not to do anything out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility we are to consider others better than ourselves.

"Do nothing
out of selfish ambition
or vain conceit,
 but in humility
consider others better
than yourselves."
Philippians 2:3 (NIV)

It's just too bad Osha can't read the Bible. We, on the other hand, thankfully can!
