Verse from Philippians

“反而倒空自己,取了奴仆的形象,成为人的样式;”
‭‭腓立比书‬ ‭2:7‬ ‭

“but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭2:7‬ ‭

The Maker of all things is the Maker of all human beings, and each of us is deemed worthy of His individual attention and love. God demonstrated that love in person on the gnarly hills of Israel and ultimately on the cross.

When Jesus visited earth in the form of a servant, He showed that the hand of God is not too big for the smallest person in the world. It is a hand engraved with our individual names and engraved also with wounds, the cost to God of loving us so much.

Father,
when we are overwhelmed by the ache of loneliness and pain,
we can run only to You.
Jesus showed us how much we matter to You, and we thank You!
