Positive Mind of Christ

Philippians 2:5 & 6

Let this mind be within as be in Christ too,
Existing in the form of God for us to view;
Counted not a being on an equality of God,
For to be grasped to honor as we applaud;
In the form of a servant to resemble men,
Being humble and obedient up unto when;
Sprawled up on the cross until His death,
With having to take His very last breath;
Jesus Christ was full of positive thoughts,
Even at getting through the tight spots;
Constantly demonstrating of God's love,
And performing miracles from power above;
Right down to His very final few moments,
Comforting His mother of her own ailments;
Jesus really looked for the misfits in life,
Helping them through their ills and strife;
He didn't come to help out mister right,
It was for sinners who gave up the fight;
He promised sins forgiven if you repent,
For a greater power that He was sent.
