—Philippians 2:1-11

Sometimes I have to say to myself, “Who do you think you are? Jesus, who was God, humbled Himself to such debasing treatment. If Jesus endured such disrespect, why should I be spared?” Jesus had every right to demand respect, but He did not. “Your attitude should be the kind that was shown us by Jesus Christ, who, though he was God, did not demand and cling to His rights as God” (v.5-6, TLB). I certainly get upset when I think my rights have been infringed upon. Jesus willingly laid down His rights. My prayer is that you and I strive for the same attitude as Jesus.
