"God First, Others Second, I'm Third"?

Where is this said in the bible? Is it a verse? I realize this may sound ignorant. Also, how do you think service and leadership are related?

Thanks everyone!!

God Bless!

    Matthew 22: 34-40

    Think about it, if every one did something for someone else for a change the world would be a better place. You would be a leader in kindness

    Leaders, leaders but supporting their troops, employees, staff, etc. That support is most effective when trust is involved. Trust is build when everyone, leader and followers have a central guiding principles to follow. I would argue that God first is that guiding principle, because it would include all of the Judeo-Christian teaching and beliefs that go with a belief in God.

    I don't think there's a verse like that, but maybe a collection of verses. However, that does not work like that in real life. One would want to preserve their own life above almost all else.

    When can anyone ever attend a service where this was the topic... 55 years I have never witnessed it. This is the cornerstone of my disbelief and the hypocrite that is a so called christian.
