The Mind Of Christ

"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus."  Philippians 2:5.  We are to have the mind of Christ.  This will require our full devotion.  This is to be our life's work.  The mind of Christ was a mind of perfection.  In all things, Jesus was submissive unto the will of God.  The will of God was His very reason for leaving heaven and coming to earth.  Christ was sacrificial.  He gave Himself for others.  Jesus humbled Himself and became obedient.  Christ was willing to do what God required for the redemption of humanity.  He was selfless.  We are to develop within ourselves the personality of Christ.  We must surrender ourselves unto God so that we come to have the mind of Christ.  The world was made better because Jesus came and lived in the world.  We, having the mind of Christ, will make the world a better place.  We will be better.  We will ascend to a higher plane of living.  As we come out of ourselves and into the mind of Christ, we will discover the fullness of our purpose in this life.  The mind of Jesus was a divine mind that proclaimed the glory of God.  As we possess the mind of Christ, we will shed forth the glorious light of God's glory and presence in a world of darkness and despair.  The mind of Christ gives hope and promise.  Let us have the mind of Jesus.
