Be Like Christ



Philippians 2:5-11 is what we would call a hymn in today’s world.  In the first century, it was probably more like a chant accompanied by a harp or lyre.  It could be titled, “Be Like Christ.”   We can only imagine that written in Hellenistic Greek, these verses would take on a melodious sound with rhyme, rhythm, and cadence.

So are our lives....In our time and our culture, our lives take on their own melody, rhythm and cadence.  Our constant care is to “sing” in harmony with Christ.

Our prayer:  Dear Heavenly Father, while we know it will never be something we can fully attain, help us to strive each day, with your help and grace, in thought, word, and deed to “be like Christ”.  Only then can we experience true joy of following Him.  Amen.
