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 emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:5-11)
Whenever I exercise selfless love, I act on Christlike thinking. I employ thought given to me by the Spirit of Christ. With the Spirit of Christ living within I pour out some of my self-concern, expanding inner soul space. Selfless love humbly serves others to the very end. Through the one exercising it selfless love points to the crucified, risen, and exalted Savior.
I kneel both in service to others and in adoration of this Savior. Jesus Christ is Lord!
