Phillipians 2:5-8 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
In this passage our Saviour gives us a model for relating to those around us. It says that he "did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped." I would then ask this...

If divinity is not something to be grasped, what is? My petty clutching on to things such as being noticed for my work, being appreciated for what I do, my finances, my aspirations... this is getting pathetic!

Today in my workplace, how can I be like Christ? Whatever I am grasping is so far beneath what he released that it is not worthy of comment.

Thank you for giving me an example, Lord. Help me to follow this in the relationships that surround me today.
