"Humble yourself therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time; Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you." 1 Peter 5:6-7
Don't brag, boast, of exaggerate to make yourself look good and appear better than others. It is much better to humble yourself and let The Good Lord exalt you.
Humility is "low mindedness" when it comes to thinking of one's self. Thinking that one is not worthy and not good enough to serve The Lord. We are not important, He is. We are woefully inadequate and insignificant by comparison.
Rather than trying to lift ourselves up, we ought to lift up the name of Jesus.
God can lift you up out of whatever, place you above whatever, and He can keep you safe from whatever. He cares for you and He can take care of you.
