Philippians 2:7-8
but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
What a lesson! God did not only humble His only begotten Son Jesus Christ before us and for us but He too humbled himself. Even though we were and still are the transgressors but because of His love He chooses to make a way for us to reconcile with Him regardless. Often it is hard for us humans to make an effort to reconcile with those who have hurt us however if we want to adopt a Christ like mind (Philippians 2:5) this is one of the most important lessons that we need to learn.
Colossians 1:19-22
For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell: and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.
