A Note from Pastor Meagan

Philippians 2:5-11
Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death— even death on a cross. Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of  Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
 
Palm Sunday is approaching, and on that day, we remember how Jesus entered into Holy Week. With courage. With intentionality. With integrity. With humility. With love. This passage from Philippians teaches us that Jesus loved the world so much he was willing to empty himself, to pour out that love on all of creation, so that everyone would know the creative abundant glory of God.
 
Questions for Reflection
As this week unfolds, spend time each day pondering the mind and heart of Christ. Where do you see God’s love overflowing this week? What is the shape, color, texture of Jesus’s compassion? What does it feel like to be so completely cared for?
