"He did not count equality with God something to clutch on to," Philippians 2:6.
He, who? Jesus. Christ. Christ Jesus decided equality with God was less important than something else. (Amazing! What could be a bigger deal than being like God?!). Yeah. Less important than what? than obedience. Less important than obedience to God. So he did. Did obey God. To empty himself. To look like a slave instead. To be born a human. And as a human he humbled himself. Obedient. Obedient to death. To death on a cross. Wow! The cost to him of our redemption; that's what we're talking about.
In humility with a brother or sister today we bow before our God and Savior who shows us obedience. And wowed together we give worship and thanksgiving to God for such a redeemer as Christ.
