Today’s Scripture
“So I’m asking you, my friends, that you be joined together in perfect unity, with one heart, one passion, and united in one love. Walk together with one harmonious purpose and you will fill my heart with unbounded joy. Be free from pride-filled opinions, for they will only harm your cherished unity. Don’t allow self-promotion to hide in your hearts, but in authentic humility put others first and view others as more important than yourselves. Abandon every display of selfishness. Possess a greater concern for what matters to others instead of your own interests. And consider the example that Jesus, the Anointed One, has set before us. Let his mindset become your motivation. He existed in the form of God, yet he gave no thought to seizing equality with God as his supreme prize. Instead he emptied himself of his outward glory by reducing himself to the form of a lowly servant. He became human! He humbled himself and became vulnerable, choosing to be revealed as a man and was obedient. He was a perfect example, even in his death, a criminal’s death by crucifixion! Because of that obedience, God exalted him and multiplied his greatness! He has now been given the greatest of all names!”
Philippians 2:2-9

Today’s Thought
Everyone wants transparency with people but remember, it’s going to take vulnerability to get there. If you're going to get to the next level of relationship you're going to have to get internal and intentional.

Today’s Confession
Father God, help me to understand how to be transparent with people, and how to be a humble person. I will get to the next level in my relationships with people as I continue to be your servant and purposely choose to put others before me.
