The Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 2:5, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus..”
What a wonderful thought. If you learn to think like Jesus, you will be able to walk in his footsteps, and where do they lead? They lead to people who need the Lord in any one of thousands of ways. Jesus placed importance on simple acts of kindness to our fellow human beings. These charitable deeds shall be rewarded at the Judgment Seat of Christ.
A lady by the name of Kate B. Wilkinson, wrote a beautiful poem about this Christian experience that all of us should share.
MAY THE MIND OF CHRIST, MY SAVIOR
May the mind of Christ, My Savior,
Live in me from day to day,
By his Love and pow’r controlling
All I do and say.
May the word of God dwell richly
In my heart from hour to hour,
So that all may see I triumph
Only through his pow’r.
May the peace of God my Father,
Rule my life in everything,
That I may be calm to comfort
Sick and sorrowing.
May the love of Jesus fill me,
As the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing,
This is victory.
May I run the race before me,
Strong and brave to face the foe,
Looking only unto Jesus
As I onward go.
May His beauty rest upon me
As I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel,
Seeing only Him.
