Christmas - celebrating Christ's humanity and divinity

As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, I’m reminded of Apostle Paul’s credal communication of how we are to treat relationships with one another and to be a shining likeness of Christ’s humility, in the very same way Christ was borned to earth, fully human but fully divine.

In Philippians 2:5-11,

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Blessings to all on Christmas Day!
