Philippians 2:5 famously urges, "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus." This isn't just a nice suggestion; it's a powerful call to transform our thinking and align it with the very heart of Jesus. But what does that actually *mean*, practically?
The King James Version (KJV) offers a particularly potent phrasing. It emphasizes a *deliberate* choice – letting this mind *be* in you. This isn't a passive reception, but an active embrace. Think of Jesus' humility, His willingness to serve, His unwavering love, and His obedience to the Father.
How can we cultivate this? Through prayer, scripture study, and consciously choosing actions that reflect Christ's character. It's about intentionally shifting our perspective from self-centeredness to other-centeredness. It’s a lifelong journey, but one that promises profound transformation as we increasingly embody the spirit of Christ in our daily lives.
