Reflect on the Bible passage that was most meaningful to you.

Right now, the most meaningful Bible passage to me is found in Philippians 2. Paul challenges his readers to have the attitude of Jesus Christ, to be like minded, to be one in love and purpose, and to emulate the characteristics of obedience, servant-hood, and humility. These are so crucial to me in my faith journey. I find it really easy to puff myself up, to see myself as being some leader among young people, to do all things by my own strength and power. Yet God, in all of his great power in glory, is calling me to take the nature of a servant, the perfect servant found in Jesus Christ. May he give me the strength to be the humble person he wants me to be.
