Embracing Humility and Obedience


Daily Scripture

“In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross!”

Philippians 2:5-8


devotion

Communion reminds us of the mindset we must have as followers of Christ. The apostle Paul urges us to have the same mindset as Jesus, who humbled Himself and became obedient to death on a cross. This call to humility and obedience is central to our faith. As we partake in Communion, we are reminded to lay down our lives in humble obedience, just as Jesus did. How can you practice humility and obedience in your daily interactions with others?

Prayer: Lord, help me to embrace humility and obedience in my life. Give me the strength to follow Jesus' example and serve others with a humble heart. Amen.
