Attitude Is Everything

 El Elspino, Honduras

This young girl looks like she's ready to take on the world, or least that crazy old guy pointing that camera at her.

You might think that I got lucky with this picture, catching this girl at just the right moment. That's partially true, but I have another picture of her, and guess what? She's sporting the same attitude.

Attitude is everything.

"Have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had." Philippians 2:5 God's Word to the Nations

Jesus didn't just take on the world, he also took on Satan and death, but he did it with an attitude of humility. God calls us to this same attitude. We are called to live with an attitude of humility, but what does this attitude look like?

Jesus did not consider equality with God as something to be seized.

Jesus humbled himself to the point of death on the cross.

Humility looks like what Jesus accomplished for us is his life, death and resurrection. If attitude is everything then this is the attitude to which we have been called.
