Happy Thursday!
"Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness." Philippians 2:5-7 (NIV)
As I contemplate this scripture as it reflects towards my attitude, I question how much of my attitude is the same as that of Christ? I use the term "I'm a work in progress" to deflect from my shortcomings. God allowed Christ' existence here on earth to be an example of how our attitudes should be towards one another. He became a humble servant who sacrificed his very life for others. We don't have to sacrifice our lives for others to be like-minded with Christ, however, our character should exhibit those very values that made him stand apart from others.
I've been blessed with an opportunity to allow my heart to become more hidden in Christ and I'm ready for the journey God has been preparing me for the last three years.
A woman who is working on her heart being so hidden in Christ...
