February 28 - Isaiah 53

Who would have thought..

our Savior would be like a "scrawny seedling" or a "scrubby plant" (The Message)-- nothing extraordinary, nothing too crazy.. nothing attractive about him, someone you'd look down upon and pass over..

Well, this is our Savior. He didn't have to act like he was all that. He just is. He doesn't need to be famous. He just is.

Yet he gave up his glory for us. He became scrawny for us. He became a human being and subjected himself to the suffering for us.

How do you respond to that?

May we, during this season of Lent, shed our glory, or our hunger to be noticed and walk in humility as Jesus did.
