Live Like Jesus

TODAY’S VERSE
“Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.”
Philippians 2:3-5 (NLT)

TODAY’S THOUGHT
The world is looking for Jesus. People love what Jesus stood for and how He lived His life. It is the way we live that turns off the world toward Christianity, not Jesus. Paul knew this. It was the love and grace of Jesus that consumed him. And he knew if we were going to make any impact in the world at all, if anyone around us was going to come to Jesus, then it would have to be through an accurate portrayal of the person we name our self after. If we are Christians, then Paul says that we “must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.” And what was this attitude? It was an attitude of love and selflessness. Paul said it this way, “Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.”  Today, let us humble ourself and live as Jesus would. Might He live in and through us so much that people would have to take a second look, mistaking our love for the Lord Himself.

TODAY’S PRAYER
Lord Jesus, help me to live the way You would. Help me have the same attitude that You do. Help me live for You so much that those around me will be compelled to know You as I do.
AMEN
