I can't get over how awesome Jesus is. He truly is my hero. No one else I've ever read about or heard about has ever come close to being as cool. No one else has ever so embodied the perfect example for mankind. Not that it's a very fair comparison, since He was "in very nature God." I could go on...
And yet, as much as I admire, in fact worship, Christ, I still struggle to give Him myself fully. The number of people I can ever remember sharing the gospel with are few; the time I spend in the Word - scant; the time I spend with Him in prayer - meager. If He truly is the Answer to all of our worries, our problems, our little concerns, then why is it so hard to tell someone about Him or spend 15 minutes with Him in the morning?

Philippians 2
5(J) Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,[a] 6(K) who, though he was in(L) the form of God, did not count equality with God(M) a thing to be grasped, 7but(N) made himself nothing, taking the form of a(O) servant,[b](P) being born in the likeness of men. 8And being found in human form, he humbled himself by(Q) becoming obedient to the point of death,(R) even death on a cross. 9(S) Therefore(T) God has(U) highly exalted him and bestowed on him(V) the name that is above every name, 10so that at the name of Jesus(W) every knee should bow,(X) in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and(Y) every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is(Z) Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
