High & Holy Becomes Meek & Lowly

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 8, 2009

Christ exemplified a character of being the humble ruler, the good shepherd and the passionate deliverer. What will we do with this? Should we really care about this at all? Why was God so mindful of us? Why should He have cared? Are we really worth it?
