What Is In Your Heart Today?

And after He had appeared in human form, He abased and humbled Himself [still further] . . .
(Philippians 2:8a, AMP)

Good Morning!

A friend told me about individuals choosing to do wrong. As we talked, it became apparent that their wrong-doing had been pre-meditated. Their pre-determined actions reveal their authentic self, the heart.

Behavior reveals the heart.

The actions of Christ Jesus revealed the heart of God as told in Philippians 2:8a:

And after He had appeared in human form:
The mystery of Christ being fully human and divine remains; however, the heart of God was revealed through Christ taking on the form of humanity.

He abased and humbled Himself [still further] . . .
In the ancient days, much like today, people were defined by their position and power. Christ Jesus put aside all position and power to serve humanity.

What is in your heart today?
Renew yourself. Ask Christ to create a new heart in you today.
Release the attitudes and actions that inhibit Christ–like behavior.
Allow others to see Christ in your heart.

Learning with you to live so others can see Christ,
Kerrie
