OUR SAVIOUR

"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things 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
King James Version

William Emmanuel Booth-Clibborn wrote one of the most beautiful hymns that I think has ever been written "DOWN FROM HIS GLORY". I love the words in this heart touching and inspiring hymn.

"Down from His glory, Ever living story, My God and Savior came, And Jesus was His name. Born in a manger, To His own a stranger, A man of sorrows, tears and agony.

O how I love Him! How I adore Him! My breath, my sunshine, my all in all. The great Creator became my Savior, And all God’s fullness dwelleth in Him.

What condescension, Bringing us redemption; That in the dead of night, Not one faint hope in sight, God, gracious, tender, Laid aside His splendor, Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul."

Have you allowed it to go from head knowledge to heart knowledge what a privilege it is to be loved by the Saviour of the world?

Do you love Him? If so, what are you doing to prove to Him that you love Him? We can say anything. We must prove to Him we love Him by our actions.
