Philippians 2:3 – 4 ESV

Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

We live in a world that celebrates personal achievement and self-reliance above all else. That it is a sign of weakness to need or even ask for assistance in any manner. And in so doing we allow both our selfish ambition and pride to guide us into a false sense of what constitutes a successful life.

However, if we are to live as Christians this is contrary to the teachings on which our faith is founded. First, all that we have in this world is but a gift by the grace of God. We have done nothing to earn it. With this realization we then become humble seeing that we are not better than others, but we are all equal in the eyes of God. And through humility we learn to be servants to others just as Christ himself was a servant to us all.
