Philippians 2:1-12
Christ's Example of Humility
It's is amazing to think about the servant heart of Jesus,
who took on the form of a human to be one of us.
He "humbled himself by becoming obedient
to the point of death, even death on a cross."
God rewarded this and exalted Jesus.
He "bestowed on him the name this is above every name,
so 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."
This epistle reading for Palm Sunday
shows that Jesus did not cling to the privileges of deity,
sought no reputation and became something very lowly,
a human.
His Father then rewarded Jesus with the honor
that no one else has had or will ever have.
All creation is to acknowledge
the power and work of Jesus.
And Jesus returned to heaven with more
than He had when He left heaven.
The recognition now stood among men
of who He was and the worship He deserved.
May our hearts honor Jesus
and Give Glory to God for sending His son.
