You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.
REFLECTION. If my attitude were that of Christ, my life and my activity would be purified of all that is incomplete, careless, worldly, and self-centered.
To be a Christian involves a commitment. I want to conform my day according to the Model Who is Christ, so that it may be spiritually fruitful for eternity.
PRAYER. My Savior, inspire me with Your attitude, and make me avoid all that is apposed to You. Let my life be as straight as the path that leads to the Father.
Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross. Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:6 – 11
