For even to this were you called: because Christ also suffered for us,
leaving
us an example,
that you should follow his steps:
1 Peter 2:21
He laid aside His glory,
His high command, His honor, and
His riches, and
humbled Himself to our necessities.
We cannot equal the example, but we should copy it."
