Chris.
Jesus Christ made Himself nothing. He was and is and will be
always something. He is God the Son, the Son of God and part of the Triune God.
Jesus Christ made Himself nothing for us, to identify with us. We need to take
this ultimate example of humility and apply it to ourselves. We are nothing and
we should not try in pride to make something of ourselves. We should humbly use
our gifts and talents for the Glory of God.
