Do you have a JOYful attitude?

Philippians 2:5   "Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus."
Let's take just a minute to think about Christ's attitude.  The scriptures tell us that: 

• He made Himself nothing
• Took the very nature of a servant
• Humbled Himself
• Was obedient unto death

That's a tall order, isn't it?  Can we have the attitude of Jesus?  Only if God is in complete control!  Many people have accepted Him as "Saviour" but have forgotten to allow Him to be "Lord" over their lives by allowing Him to have complete control.  We are not puppets on a string; God won't MAKE us do anything.  But if we relinquish control...complete control....we will begin to see the "fruit of the Spirit" in our lives: love, JOY, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control.  When this crop of fruit grows in your garden of life, then you'll be exhibiting the "attitude of Jesus"!!!!!
