Fili. 2:5-7—Phil. 2:5-7

Lunes 7 de febrero
Jesús [...] no dio consideración a una usurpación, a saber, que debiera ser igual a Dios. No; antes bien, se despojó a sí mismo y tomó la forma de un esclavo (Fili. 2:5-7).
La cristiana hace bien en imitar a Jesús y respetar la dirección de su esposo (1 Ped. 2:21; 3:1, 2). Pongamos un ejemplo. Un muchacho quiere hacer algo para lo que necesita la autorización de ambos padres y le pide permiso a su madre. Como ella no ha hablado del asunto con su esposo, lo mejor sería que le preguntara a su hijo si ya ha hablado con su padre. Si el joven no lo ha hecho, ella debería consultar a su marido y tomar juntos la decisión. Y si no está de acuerdo con él, sería bueno que hablaran del asunto en privado. Lo último que querría es contradecir a su esposo o cuestionarlo delante del hijo (Efe. 6:4).

Jesus . . . gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God. No, but he emptied himself and took a slave’s form.—Phil. 2:5-7.
A Christian wife does well to imitate Jesus by supporting her husband’s headship. (1 Pet. 2:21; 3:1, 2) Consider a situation in which she has an opportunity to do this. Her son is seeking permission to engage in an activity for which parental permission is needed. Because the matter has not previously been discussed by the parents, it would be appropriate for the mother to inquire, “Did you ask your father?” If the son has not, she should discuss the matter with her husband before anything is decided. Moreover, a Christian wife would certainly want to avoid contradicting her husband or challenging his opinion in front of their children. If she disagrees with her husband about something, she would talk with him in private.—Eph. 6:4.
