June 30 Echoes of Eternity
Being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Philippians 2:8
Dear to My heart are those who will follow Me in My humiliation. The world can still recognize goodness and self-denial, even though it loves evil and self-assertion. Those who will put down the secret longing to be lifted up in the eyes of others enter into a secret place where I love to abide. The desire for recognition and appreciation still lives in your heart. I will aid you in mercy as you are willing to receive My aid, in putting this deadly desire to death. It can be done—and will be done if you are willing. Remember, the desire holds you back from Me. What folly, My child, to linger there when I hold out such a prize for you!
