He Humbled Himself

Philippians 2:5-8 (ESV Strong's)

5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Though we are in the form of man, we do not count self as a thing to be grasped. When we empty ourselves and take the form of His servant, we are reborn into the mind of Christ. We humble ourselves in obedience to His word to the point of death. We bear our cross which leads to life.
