Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: who, being in the very nature of 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- even death on a cross!
~Philippians 2:5-8
This is a true humility [a modest view of one’s own importance; the act or posture of lowering oneself in relation to others, or conversely, having a clear perspective and respect for one’s place in context]. The humility that we learn as believers in Christ. For if Jesus Himself took off His Royalty, was sent down in human (flawed) form, endured all suffering– all the way to the point of DEATH… Then how much more shall we practice this same principle. The bible declares in Matthew 23:12, “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled and whoever humbles himself will be exalted!”
