True Nature of Humility


Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
but made himself nothing,
taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
He humbled himself
and became obedient to death.
(Philippians 2:5-8)

"Part of the faith dare is allowing God to shape us according to the new spiritual nature we have inherited in Christ.  And that nature is humble and loving.  Christ gave us an example of humility by dying for people who didn't care, were in their sins, were undeserving."  (Debbie Alsdorf, 30 Day Faith Dare)
