Kukua katika Upendo: Safari ya Kupitia Moyo wa MunguSiku 4 kati ya 14

Siku 4

Wafilipi 2:3-8

Somo la Maandiko(ESV)

3Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

4Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

5Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

6who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

7but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

8And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Tafakari ya leo

Yesu tunaonyesha picha nzuri sana ya upendo kupitia upuuzi na ujinga wa kujietea. Kifungu hiki kinachagua uweza wetu wa kuuzamisha kwa kuwaalika tukafikiri hitaji la wengine kama muhimu kama yetu wenyewe. Hii haimaanishi tunasahau uangalizi wa kujiaidi au kuwa matope, lakini badala yake kupanua eneo la ufikiaji wetu zaidi ya sisi wenyewe. Mfano wa Yesu ni kamilia—ingawa alikuwa Mungu, hichagua njia ya mtumishi. Aina hii ya upendo inatuuza kitu. Inamaanisha kuweka chini hitaji letu kwa kuwa sawa, heshima yetu kujitaka kwa kwanza, au matakwa yetu ya kuwa na njia yetu. Kwa vitendo, hii inaweza kumaanisha kusikiza vizuri wakati mwenza wako anasambaza siku yao, hichagiza kumhudumia wakati ungependa kuhudumiwa, au kuweka chini simu yako kwa kumpa mtu tahadhari yako. Upendo halisi daima unashangilia namna fulani ya kuambatanisha, lakini ni katika kumali tunakuwa nayo neema ya unganisha halisi.
