Whatever you do, do not do it for the glory of man, which is vain glory, but do it in lowliness and humility. Always find time to think of helping someone in need. So, therefore, let the mind of Christ be in you. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, made himself of no reputation and took upon Him the form of a servant, made in the likeness of man. He, therefore, humbled himself and became obedient unto death, dying on the cross. Because of this, God exalted him and gave him a name above all, so that at the hearing of his name, one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that he is Lord. In the same manner that God exalted Jesus, He will exalt you if you walk humbly before Him. Therefore, whatever you do, do it without murmuring, knowing that in due season, God will exalt you.
