God could have set himself up to be a figure of great prestige and influence, but instead he opted to be a nobody from nowhere, born into an unimportant family in the lowest class of people. There was nothing about Jesus of Nazareth that was worth taking notice. In this teaching from Andrew Schey, we are reminded again that God’s ways are often much different than ours and that elevating our careers, beauty, and talents will leave us out of step with his true purposes in this world.
