The Humble Christ

Dustin Benge

John Owen’s "The Glory of Christ" (1684) unveils the beauty of Christ’s humility. The eternal Son of God, rich in glory, became poor and became a servant for our sake. In His self-emptying obedience and love, we see the glory of God’s grace displayed in all its fullness. Today, reflect on how the humility of Christ encourages worship, kills pride, and calls us to imitate His character in our relationships and actions. Let His example of selfless love cultivate humility and thankfulness in your heart.
