Though he was God, he did not
demand and cling to his rights as God.
Philippians 2:6
Need more patience? Drink from the patience of God (2Pet.3:9) Is generosity an elusive virtue? Then consider how generous God has been with you (Rom. 5:8). Having trouble putting up with ungreatful relatives or cranky neighbors? God puts up with you when you act the same."He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked" ( Luke 6:35, NIV)
can't we love like this?

This is one of my favorite verses lately. If Jesus didn't attempt to claim His rights as God, why should I be out there "claiming" my rights, whatever they may be? Humility is so hard but so good!
