“Think of yourselves the way Christ Jesus thought of himself. He had equal status with God but didn’t think so much of himself that he had to cling to the advantages of that status no matter what. Not at all. When the time came, he set aside the privileges of deity and took on the status of a slave, became human! Because of that obedience, God lifted him high and honored him far beyond anyone or anything, ever…” Philippians 2:5-7 & 9 The Message
I believe one of Christianity’s most important, underlying messages is: “Choose to not be so easily offended.”
I’ve decided to make it one of my New Year’s Resolutions…along with: “Don’t take myself too seriously!”
I hope you’ll join me in my happier corner of the world.
Happy New Year!
