What a Savior

You are saved - seek to be like your Savior.  Charles Spurgeon

If you ever had someone ask you why Christians place so much importance on Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, we need look no further than the written account of Him in the Bible.  I am thankful to God for giving me such a Savior.  When we die to ourselves and accept Him as our Lord and Savior, our lives are forever changed.

Prayer for the Day: Heavenly Father, I praise You for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  O what a Savior who died a horrible death to save a sinner like me.  Every blessing I ever receive comes from You Lord, and the most important one is Jesus.  I can’t wait to meet Him face to face and sing His praises.  Thank you for loving me and sending Your Son to die for me. 
   

Scripture: The Humbled and Exalted Christ



Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.  And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:5-11
