And that's why God chose him to lead his people!.
2. Mary: - The humble servant of the Lord“…and because of her humility, God made great things for her, and all generations forever will call her blessed (Lk.1:48-49).
3. Jesus: - humbled himself being obedient to death, even death on a cross. That is why God exalted him and gave him the Name that outshines all names, so that at the name of Jesus all knees should bend" (Phi.2:8-10).
