Third, we demonstrate honor by placing others above ourselves. The NIV translation of Romans 12:10 says, “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” Contrary to most competitions, this game is won by lifting others up, not ourselves. Our goal is to help others be successful.
We should strive to be a blessing to those around us by showing them that we care and that they are important to us. In the honoring game, victory comes when we are genuinely happy when we see others being placed on the winner’s platform.
With our ground rules set let’s all go out and play the honoring game. If we all try and outdo one another then, who knows, perhaps we all end up winners. Let the honoring games begin.
