This specific verse broke my heart. Our Prince steps down from his throne in Heaven and came down to earth to become a "servant". Besides servant slave also comes to mind. Jesus gave away his life just so He could serve man. By being so selfless, He did only what was glorifying to God despite the persecution from man, the same people He came to save. He could have so easily left us to die or to wither without God on earth until we burned in Hell, but Jesus decided to die for us on the Cross.
This act of selflessness is one thing I really admire about Jesus. He gave it all. I mean literally gave it all for God's glory. The guy was sinless! As Christians, we aim to be like Jesus, but how is that possible? Jesus was a perfect man! It is not possible at all to be like Jesus! But for me, even though it is impossible to be as perfect as Jesus was, we can try our best for God and God will know how hard we fought for Him. For me, I am working on trying to be less selfish with my own time and learning to give it all to God so that he may be glorified in everything I do.
Amen.
