Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross! Philippians 2:6-8 NIV
In yesterday’s post, I mentioned how Christ humbled Himself in so many ways. After reading today’s scripture verses, I would venture to say that anyone with an open mind should agree with that statement.
Think of it: God, in the appearance of a man humbled himself. He accepted even death, and it was a brutal death, death on a cross.
Jesus performed many miracles, yet never gloated over what He did. Jesus always had the well-being of others in mind over that of His own needs. What was of need to our Savior was total submission to the Father, doing everything which the Father willed for Him to do.
We need Christ within us in order to humble ourselves. No matter how hard we try, our humility will never be that of our Savior in magnitude. Yet, we are called to be like Him and humble ourselves for the sake of others. Give your all to Christ, and let Him humble you.
