This week we will be talking about 2 other attributes of Jesus that we can become more like. He was a servant leader and He was able to put his flesh under, and die to himself, to obey the will of God. I read a quote once that said this, “Not everyone can be famous, but everyone can be great through serving.” If we want to be great in the kingdom of God, we have to have the heart of a servant. Jesus definitely lived that! He also showed that to be a servant, we do have to put our flesh under. One important dynamic to both of these qualities is selflessness. In a world where it is easy to boast about our accomplishments, Jesus lived what he taught about, not letting the right hand know what the left hand was doing. Probably even those who were closest to him had no idea of all the kind things He did to those He came in contact with. Jesus realized that living the best life is all about giving, and releasing the desire to have things my own way. In reality, Jesus path was harder than we can ever imagine. He chose to yield to the Father’s will. Instead of saying I will be, I will do or I will decide, Jesus chose to yield to God. What God wills is what I will be, I will do or I will decide. With that emphasis, we do become more like Christ. We are saying our will doesn’t have more precedence than God’s will. A statement by Jennifer Kennedy Dean says it so well. “When the flesh life in the soul has been crucified, the soul is free to live in resurrection power.” And consider this, the same power, that conquered the grave, LIVES IN YOU!
