Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, Philippians 2:9
The Joy of the Lord! Does it ever feel like a far off and lost experience? I know that at times it has felt that way for me, but when I consider the "why" of that, I find it is my own mindset causing me to feel like I don't measure up to God's standards. AW Tozer reminds us in his writings:
"The truth is that God has never planned that His children should live forever stretched upon a cross. Christ Himself endured His cross for only six hours. When the cross had done its work, life entered and took over. “Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name.”" Philippians 2:9
It's time to exalt the Lord and enjoy His joy. Join me in reading Philippians 2 and be encouraged!
