“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. He humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.” Philippians 2: 5-8
Living a life of humility is not an easy task. It is hard for us as humans to put ourselves in the position of submission when our worldly ways have taught us to climb the ladder of success and be better than everyone else. But this was not the way of Jesus. He is equal to God. But he humbled himself when he came to this earth and lived a life of humility. If Jesus can do this then you and I can do this. We sometimes forget that Jesus was human. He had all of the emotions we have and had to overcome the same thoughts and ideas we must overcome. Just as Jesus did, we are to put others before ourselves. We are to humble ourselves and live in servitude of those around us. This is how God wants us to live. We are to be obedient just as Jesus was and not take our eyes off of the end goal of salvation for all. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
