So should we also do...

"If I, therefore, the master and teacher,
have washed your feet,
you ought to wash one another’s feet.
I have given you a model to follow,
so that as I have done for you, you should also do."
Holy Thursday, 2014

Christ emptied himself

Be of the same mind that is also in Christ Jesus:
although he was indeed God,
he did not regard that equality with God
as something to be exploited.

Instead, he emptied himself,
and took on our form, the human form,
and became humbly obedient to God.

Therefore God highly exalted him!

(cf Philippians 2:5-9)
   

The dawn from on high shall break upon us

In the tender compassion of our God
    the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
    to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death,
    and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

From "The Morning Canticle" - Luke 1.78–79
