“But made himself of no reputation, and
took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:” ~Philippians 2:7-8
Are
you better than Jesus? Many of would say there’s an obvious answer
to that question, but their actions may say otherwise. Jesus knew what it meant
to be humbled. He obviously knows what it meant to put the needs of others
before His own. Many of us today don’t understand and don’t want to experience
that kind of humility. Everything is about us. Where we work, where we live,
social status, and the like. But humility is a part of godliness.
Jesus showed us what the true path to greatness looks like.
He gave us a model to follow. Life shouldn’t be about building yourself up or
seeing how much stuff you can get. Your life should be about following Jesus
and learning to live the way He lived. Sometime that will involve giving up
what you want for the good of others. Do
you want to be like Jesus?
