Humility
Jude, the brother of Jesus and James, had every reason to boast within the faith community because of his standing. However, he begins his letter by calling himself a “servant of Jesus Christ.” Humility is often not an everyday disposition that we have but a choice that we make. Jude recognizes that humility begins and ends with Jesus, and when a person is situated in this reality, they can confidently count others more significant than themselves.
