Bible Passage for the Week

Philippians 2:5-8 - "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made Himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.  And being found in human form, He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on the cross."

This section of scripture makes me sit back in awe as I reflect upon what Christ really did for me and for everyone else.  He was in the form of God and made Himself nothing.  We live in a society where climbing the ladder is what makes us successful; yet, Christ diminished himself to a servant.  The beginning of Philippians 2 is entitled "Christ's Example of Humility".  This truly gives us something to ponder and consider as we go about our daily lives.
