The Humility of God Phil. 2:1-11
At Mass the priest pours a drop of water in the chalice and whispers,
“By the mingling of this water and wine,
may we come to share in the Divinity of Christ,
Who humbled Himself to share in our humanity.”
Though He had it all,
The Son of God gave it all up;
And became human,
So that we might become Divine.
What an exchange;
We give Jesus our humanity
And He gives us His Divinity;
And if that was not enough,
At every Mass,
The Son of God humbles Himself even more;
And takes the form of Bread and Wine;
So every time we receive Communion,
Jesus mingles His Body and Blood with our Body and Blood;
The Son of God takes on
Our humanity, our suffering, our poverty and our limited time on earth;
So that we can share in His Divinity, His glory, His riches and His eternity in Heaven;
You are not going to get a better deal anywhere else.
